> Where is this idea coming from that black or women are somehow special cases that need to be handled with care
All people should be handled with care. It's basic empathy. History gives you context that can assist in empathizing with black people and women.
> plenty of people around the world have been killed, enslaved, displaced, humiliated and any number of things
Part of the reason slavery matters so much in the United States is because there are still vestiges of it in all of our political / social / and cultural lives. It's been a part of the U.S. from the beginning and the country has done a piss-poor job of rectifying the situation.
Your comment lacks any perspective on history which in turn affects how we treat fellow people.
