I think most of us do. I'm cynical. I've seen so much shit by so many people and countries on each other and the rest of the planet. Just in easily accessible news.
Change is the work of our lifetimes.

Oh come on. All humans are capable of such horrors. Haven't we proved that over history? I didn't gas Jews but I think a Holocaust museum is good for everyone. Don't you agree?

We as the human race. I think you qualify
Eh, museum of the confederacy grounds. Or their basement vaults.

Maybe a museum. We can't forget what we did.

Grew up in Richmond fro 60s to 80s. Lived in Henrico which was one of the original white flight areas after Richmond integrated. I went to school and college with the casual racists like Young and his blackface. My high school played Dixie as our school song and waved a rebel flag. I never thought I would see this day. I cried tears of joy when they took Lee down. Monument avenue now does not make me cringe.
It's about time.

Yes! I love Arthur being there too! I remember it was a big deal when that statue was placed.
Wonder what they will put in those spots. Anything? Nothing?
