I respectfully disagree.
It isn't slavery in itself that people are angry about, its the legacy of slavery.

I can't really say for the UK, I really have no idea how blacks were treated like post-slavery (though I imagine it can't be all that good) but for countries like the US or Brazil one cannot tell blacks to move on when they still experience those legacies.

I too think apologizing is pointless but because of this.
In fact I kind of find it insulting.
