Great reflections, great essay…powerful reminder our nation’s history is complicated and not perfect. We can be better. We’ve made progress, but we can be better.
Thanks, Lee. Ignoring or refuting the ugly parts of our nation’s history is a time-honored tradition and keeps us going back and forth from better to worse. (Better soon, I still hope.)
As always, I enjoyed your article. Winston Salem has a book selected each year as a community read and free copies are provided by the local bookstore. This years book, The Sum of Us, is very enlightening and opened my eyes to issues I had not considered. If you have not read it, I highly suggest it.
