Of course in US schools, the genocide of the indigenous inhabitants is usually whitewashed; the curriculum sort of leaves you with the impression that North America was some vast, sparsely-populated land the white folks were just looking for some "elbow room". But the European colonial period, here that's usually just colored blobs on the map. I'm curious as to how this is taught in European classrooms. Any sort of reflection at all on how evil this was?
I can't comment on it in education, but I visited the slave market museum in Lagos, Portugal (the site of the first European slave market) once and it was very clear that there was no apology on the behalf of slavers (the exhibits made very clear they knew what they were doing was wrong, and that they were wrong for doing it), but at the same time they had some Red Cross materials soliciting donations for Ukraine that said "Lagos: People are our greatest resource".
