I'd argue that we still carry scars from the Ottoman rule, even though it ended 2 centuries ago.
There are living people in USA who were around for the segregation.

My grandfather, who passed only 14 years ago, was a slave. I have not qualms with the word "master".
Are there any documented cases of the word "master" offending anybody?
Somehow we have no issues with master/slave. Most people (except failed students and former party members) know communism was a really really shitty system. And most of the current racial issues are imported from america, during the democrats-vs-trump "battles", and are so americanized, that people forget minorities here (gypsies,...), and use BLM for maybe 10 black people that live here.
