Charlottesville

[JJamiekinder]

Thank you Laurie! We do live in interesting times to say the least. The one thing that I think is important to keep in mind is that regardless of what side all of us fall on concerning the current situation, is how important it is to have an intellectual and peaceful dialogue; even if that gets spirited at times. Sometimes I think that we forget that and the moment we stop listening to each other and the perspectives of others are taken for granted is the moment societies begin to decline. Lets hope Americans can learn from Charlottesville and not get caught up in the extremes of hate and prejudice that always seem to rear their ugly head when a true conversation about our history should be at the forefront and not hijacked by those who really do not understand our nations past. And thank you Roger for allowing us a forum to do so. Onward and upward!
