Kelly,
I especially like what you stated here: both writers continue to pursue knowledge and answers to long held fears, beliefs, and possible misconceptions. They push themselves and others to confront, attempt to understand, take responsibility for a complex history that continues to perplex and inform us about humanity.”
This notion of pursuing answers not only for ourselves, but for others is often considered dangerous and threatening, no?! Hence, we have book banning, narrow and limited teaching standards, whitewashing of history, a stranglehold on seeing and celebrating identity…….
Let us be and do better…
