In my opinion, a better solution for long past injustices is mandatory curriculum on the subject. It still won’t help those harmed, but it can prevent us from making the same mistakes again.

I agree with this. Money is not going to fix anything. The damadge has been done so now we have to stop it to prevent more harm and educate. Tell what happend, why and why it was terrible.

In my country we neglect this and due to that a lot of people still think that a dictator was good.
