"Although the practice of slavery may have been legal at one time, it was, without question, a profoundly immoral practice necessitating atonement."

"The enslavement of Africans was an epitome of evil, and its stain on human history cannot be sanitized with the passage of time."

"I have a resolution calling for a Slavery Remembrance Day."

"There has to be a reform of that process."
