"we" weren't responsible or the trail of tears, and "we" weren't responsible for slavery or any of that. So why should we be taught to sympathize with blacks? It's just the polite thing to do I suppose.

"We" many not have personally caused those things but "we" certainly have benefitted from them. The United Sates wouldn't be what it is today if it hadn't had access to free (read: stolen) land and free (read: slave) labor.
