My parents, both teachers, were fierce in their support of civil rights in the 60s and 70s. Too poor for hotels, we camped one summer thru the South. Saw Civil war battlefields, slave trading docks, plantation slave quarters. They did not turn away from the horror. But I learned about the June 17th from the TV show Blackish. So yes, i have so much still to learn. And learn. And be still and listen.
