I’ve been to Boone plantation and felt the same awe. Don’t be ashamed or afraid of history, your country or others. Not one country has a past that they are 100% proud of. But it’s the past and we should learn from it. Not sweep it under a rug, apologize for it or try to make up for it. Just take a good look at it, do your best to do better and move forward without making the same mistakes.
This is a great point of view, thanks for sharing Joan. I think we can all look back at the mistakes previous generations have made, and vow to do better ourselves. This is universal.
