What struck me at the time was how emotionally invested blacks were in slavery being integral to the foundation of America. They want to think that slavery was a great injustice but also that slaves were indispensable. The professor was trying to argue that slavery was unjustified in all respects but bruised their ego by doing that

Clearly some people sold them on that idea of indispensability so that they'd feel good about themselves.

In their honest moments most black people do not believe this idea. If they, or their ancestors, had truly "built" this country, they would treat it better. They would not throw litter all over it, for one thing.
