No, an explanation may be in order; but not an apology. There seems to be a victim mentality that insists that you have a right to never be offended. We seem to be insisting that people need to be catagorized into oppressors and victims. There is no victim here, you have no personal responsibility for the entire history of mistreatment for any group.
