Pieces of truth
There are no quick and easy answers to the questions that have plagued Greensboro over the 25 years since the Nov. 3 shootings. But we know the answers are out there. The problem is, they’re in pieces.
One piece says what happened had nothing to do with Greensboro, for example, while another piece says it had everything to do with Greensboro. When people have different pieces of the truth and don’t talk with one another, they stay divided. We congratulate the city – City Council members, everyday residents, bloggers and others – for finally starting the difficult conversations that will bring out a whole truth with which we all can live.
Do you have a piece of the truth? Share it in a statement and share it here.
Are there pieces you just haven’t been able to understand? Ask your questions here. You’ll elicit answers (and hopefully statements) from others, and help us shape the final report into something that’ll work for everyone.
