Thanks to Peachtree City Library for Holocaust display

My heartfelt thanks to the PTC Library and The GA Commission On the Holocaust for the presentation, “How Did It Happen? The Holocaust In Historical Context.” (January 13)

The self-guided display was extremely moving. The class by Patrice Weaver was excellent. I refer to her one-hour talk as a class because I learned so very much; and, like all good classes, I was also inspired.

The subject was not just timely, but alarming, in its familiarity.

It is imperative to teach history completely and honestly. Only then can we learn; only then can we do better. Better for our own nation and better for the world.

To do otherwise — to deny or edit our mistakes and missteps — is not patriotic. It is dishonest. It is irresponsible. And it is dangerous.

Sincere thanks to all responsible for the opportunity to attend such a worthwhile event.
