And we have to do it understanding -- and to the point of the spirit of you raising it, and the way you did -- it is in our collective best interest to speak these truths, to acknowledge what happened, to acknowledge then the vestiges of it that remain because they do. To get to a place where we can heal and we can be better. And I believe that is going to have to be about leadership -- that one is to your point -- not stoking the racism, the anti-Semitism, the white supremacy that we have been seeing because that is happening, i know we are better than this, I believe that. But we will not achieve our true strength as a country if we fail to acknowledge the truth and speak it and recognize what must be done to address it.
