I'm struck by the idea that the Martin-Malcolm dialectic may parallel the often false tension between 'justice' and and 'reconciliation.' I've written before about how both are essential. I may want to revisit the idea through this lens you have offered. <br /><br />I don't know how many times I've read 'Inauguration Ball 2009' and I still cant get to the end without getting choked up!StrngeFruithttp://bytheirstrangefruit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-59865159586816003892013-02-15T11:17:59.576-05:002013-02-15T11:17:59.576-05:00I bet you and your family have some very interesti...I bet you and your family have some very interesting stories of that time and place!StrngeFruithttp://bytheirstrangefruit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-66215107089248866462013-02-14T19:26:56.999-05:002013-02-14T19:26:56.999-05:00One of the most wonderful overviews of the wealth ...One of the most wonderful overviews of the wealth of our history in this country. Thank you for this. I grew up in Birmingham and stayed home sick the day of the bombing. We lived on the edge of downtown, so I heard it. I was 10 years old. My parents were both educators and involved in the de-segregation movement. Those years shaped many of us. We have made some progress, but not enough. We DO have work to do.Susan Smith Simshttp://www.facebook.com/susansmithsimsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-79510396910560917692012-03-01T17:13:02.357-05:002012-03-01T17:13:02.357-05:00Yay!
