I agree kendall, but historically this is how it was. Once we start wiping the tapes of our history for whatever reason we remove the ability to learn from the past. Let's leave revisionism to the dictators of this world. If we wish to understand how people feel today we need to know how they were treated in the past.
Somehow this well meaning horror some people have for words can lead to a state of mind like holocaust denial and I'm sure none of us want to go there.
What was, is. Read, mark and learn.
