As soon as my edits are done, I'm going to read it!<br /><br />I couldn't agree more with Dina about how shameful it is to gloss over the disgraceful actions of the past. I found an example of this in my own local history last week, where the authors of a local history book detailed cruelty to Chinese laborers of the 1800s via a signed town Suzie Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06296203324088418271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-54764422005090391162012-03-27T23:48:06.538-04:002012-03-27T23:48:06.538-04:00DEB H, I’m so glad you could stop by.

Ive been looking forward to it.<br /><br />In many cases team names etc have been adopted out of respect because they represent power and accomplishment. That's just my opinion of course! <br /><br />Thank you for addressing such a terrible moment in history with such care. I'm loving the bookDebra E.

I see a the injustices and issues that we shouldn't repeat. I think that to gloss over the ugly sides of history can almost become insensitive. Sandi does a great job of illustrating the hard parts of history while still Dina Sleimanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214446103057806111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-43813780635894433422012-03-27T12:53:58.219-04:002012-03-27T12:53:58.219-04:00I can NOT believe I forgot to say that once again,...I can NOT believe I forgot to say that once again, White Fire has produced another gorgeous, outstanding cover!

It is heartbreaking. It's hard for me to watch or hear about things done to children, especially toddlers. I'm even more sensitive now because I've got a toddler of my own at present and can too easily see him in such events.<br />At DebHnoreply@blogger.com
