Clinton Delays National Slavery Apology
The White House rejected a national slavery apology for now. President Clinton will not begin the race dialogue with an apology, though he may consider the idea later. White House spokesman Mike McCurry said Clinton decided after his June speech that an apology is not the starting point for the national dialogue on race. The president was to discuss the subject at a Leadership Forum meeting, per aides.
