Gosh if anything we need far more truths to be told about the shadows of our history as a nation. Only then will we ever course correct. It’s because of this perpetual whitewashing that we continue to repeat harmful decisions and sink into shameful insecurity. Ty Jeff for reflecting truth.

The value of NPs is the fact that they are open to the truth - the truth of fire and drought, racism and inspiration, beauty and calamity. There are values here as well as the dark secrets that have been too long kept hidden. The Parks are not lessened by the truth, but enhanced as honest places to gain perspective while gain respite from the turmoil of the nation.
