Teaching Unity

Living in Shenandoah County over 36 years, I understand how folks hate change and feel marginalized. However, our recent school board ruling to change our school names again is hurtful. Let’s teach more about history and less regarding hysteria.

Good Christians would not offend those who had enslaved ancestors. Also, true citizens want to heal rather than wound their fellow neighbors.

There used to be a sign on Route 11 outside New Market. It read, No one's free while others are oppressed.

So will changing our school names back to Confederate heroes result in us praying together or preying on each other?

May we kindly unite and not divide as the greatest form of education.
