A Mother's Perspective
From Mary, 2 January 2007
Wow! Thank you for your site. First
glance has blown me away, but thank you!
As the mother of a ten year old caucasian boy, I feel it is important
that my son know the reality of race relations; that he know the history
and present undercurrents that impact our lives. I was once naive enough
to believe that bigotry and racial prejudice were, primarily, remote
aberrations in modern society. Having come to a greater sense of our
present reality, I feel it is important to educate my child. Thank you
for giving me a resource to use toward that end.
Peace, Mary
Reply from the editor-- Thank you, Mary. It's certainly nice to start out the new year with a compliment. We'll keep striving to improve the Afrolumens Project and keep it accurate, relevant and above all, interesting.
