Hi Dana

Your speak is amazing and your answer was powerful. I wish the media admit this mistake and concentrate more on healing the wounds instead of complicating them by including the racial and ethnic factors every time.

Regards

I was at the Trilogue and the moderator's comment after Dana spoke drove me crazy. The people who were chosen to participate in that panel have to obviously be knowledgeable about the issues being discussed. I expected nothing less and nothing more than thoughtful answers. But I didn't expect the moderator to not think the same.
