Ms.Tarr And Professor Feather Comments

In the teacher role, this poem reminds me, Edmund, of the responsibility to nurture discernment. With the passion you express here, I wonder what represents clarity and truth. I count on you to acknowledge that the term revisionist is in the perspective of the beholder. For example, Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States might be viewed revisionist, But with heavy reliance on primary source material he gives, it seems to me, a fuller picture of our history, one untold in the history texts I grew up with. Me, I’m more concerned with the way we Americans have been polarized in my lifetime. If you haven’t read it, I express this in my poem Listening to Genius Loves Company. Glen
