Truth and Reconciliation, the sequel

The Greensboro City Council tonight will revisit a March 15 request to voice its support for the Greensboro Truth and Reconciliation Project, but the result will be the same as it would have been then.

The council will say no along racial lines.

There will be rhetoric about history and bad PR and hurting economic development and looking ahead, not back.

There also will be rhetoric about healing and coming together.

And the community will remain sharply split over an issue that many claim not to care about.

Update: David Hoggard wonders why black and white council members see the issue so differently.
Roch Smith proposes his own resolution.
