1. Please share any reflections you have today.

This exhibit opened my eyes to the massacre that was commmitted at My Lai. I’ve been a student all my life but I have never understood the full extent of the atrocities committed in the Vietnam War. It was America’s Holocaust. I don’t have answers to anything, but I don’t understand why this isn’t taught in schools. We are continuing this massacre everyday. My generation has seen a lot of killing. I want to understand what we’ve done and how to stop.

I don’t understand why we are jailing children.
