CV and mad panic behaviour

Moving forward can only occur with a proper acknowledgment of the past, and genuine attempts to redress significant imbalances in society. You can't move forward by simply forgetting, ignoring history or sweeping things under the carpet.

Absolutely. 'Those who ignore history are deemed to repeat it' as the saying goes. I actually see much in the world that is addressing and seeking to change the injustices and inequities of the past. And that aint easy. Humans don't like change.

We are actually living through a kind of multi-level revolution which will take generations. As it took generations for women to get the right to vote - seems extraordinary, doesn't it, that less than 100 years ago women in the US did not have the right to vote... in fact go back to circa 1790 and beyond in the US and only white, wealthy males had the right to vote as was the case in many parts of the world... so there has been significant progress, which needs to earnestly continue as horrendous injustice does still occur. Sheesh, here in Oz the White Australia Policy was only officially done away with in the early 70s!!! It's gonna take time but we're heading in the right direction though the road be rocky and often difficult and painful.
