You talk about speaking the truth. What I see from the article is that you speak your version of the truth, not truth itself. What you did say about not being aware of our history is quite correct. When I was going to school in the mid-1900s, history was taught and discussed and the schools I attended were racially mixed and the racial animosities we see today were not present. In my opinion, what is taught (or not taught) in schools today, culminating in “Common Core” has been disastrous and is the main reason we have so much animosity. That is where effort needs to be placed, and the idea of taking responsibility for one’s own knowledge and actions needs to be reinforced.
