It's good, but IMO you left out the best part of what he said.
“Who is the guilty party? Should we start at the beginning where African Americans sold your African American ancestors into slavery? And to a slave trader who eventually sold African American ancestors to slave owners?....I feel it continues to let us know we’re still African American, rather than just American. Reparation or atonement is outside the teaching of Jesus Christ.”
Well, it's that "atonement" is meant to be gotten from whites living now, who never had anything at all to do with slavery. It's a "sins of the father" sort of thing, except in this case, it's more like "great-great-great-etc-grandfather", since American slavery ended many generations ago, and even the grandsons of slaves and slave-holders are all long dead.
