Dear Primos, friends and family:
There is so much troubling conflict and division in our nation currently, it is painful to observe. The current focus seems to be to change history, by taking down evidence of our history.
Taking down statues do not change history. What the statue represent is where we’ve been. Exclusion causes confusion.
Where we are now, the haven for all searching for freedom and safety, grew out of a slow acceptance of the tenets on which our constitution is based, respect for the rights of the individual, based on Judeo-Christian beliefs.
We did not get here through rioting in the streets, advocating murder, burning cars and buildings. We have achieved civil equity by law and order. Yes, there are abuses and injustices, and those obviously need to be stopped.
However, to accept lawlessness as the answer to civil injustices escalates the chaos. It does not solve the situation of learning to live with those who are historically different from us, the newly arrived, as well as those with the earliest of ancestral Americans.
Who are we, why and where did we come from? Those are the questions.
Erasing the past, veils the facts.
The world needs a strong America.
God bless America. Mimi
