Thank you so much for sharing this website! Tears welled up as I viewed it and I could only get to about the 10th slide. I will be going back to view the rest.
I e-mailed the website to some of my friends. One of my friends responded negatively stating that why is it that we're so caught up in the negative and are not accentuating the positive efforts we've made thus far. I responded that it all goes hand in hand. I've visited plenty of websites. Some that focus on the positive side of our efforts and those that have been the catalysts to bring about the struggle. I don't feel you can really appreciate the struggle without knowing from whence the struggle came. Realistically, being a child born in the early 70's. I truly don't have the reality just stories that have been told.
I think that's part of the reason why it's easy for us to take our progess so far for granted because a lot of us didn't have first hand experience of the struggle.
