I think we do agree though that there are lots of people all around who won't do anything to better their situation and blame everyone else.
He's dismissing it so easily because to him it's a non-issue, it happened more than a 100 years ago. Instead of criticizing him and his values/thoughts how about asking why it doesn't affect him but supposedly affects others. Or is the subject a crutch that usually ends any discussion about the current situation and why it exists?
