I have to question what wounds exist 110 years later. After all, is there anyone alive today who was present then?
I guess I missed something.
It's unfortunate the funding and time could not have been applied to some modern day issue.
The drug and crime problems at Creekwood come to mind.
Perhaps the issue of absentee Fathers who are present only at the time of conception and then fade into the sunset abandoning all responsibilities.
How about the lack of success of so many of the high school youths who struggle because they are overwhelmed by all of the work thrown at them.
There's 3 which come to mind.
It never fails to amaze me how so many will focus on decades old issues which have no bearing in today's society. Yet they ignore or turn a deaf ear to the real issues facing our society and youth today.
