Dear colleagues, as a long time resident of your country and one who dearly loves it, I send this to ask how does this sit with you.? <br>
I lived in Cleveland Oh in 1960/1 in a black ghetto on the east side. Jim was a pastor in a storefront Church. There were absolutely no white people at all. Our parishioners were simply marvellous to me especially when I had our daughter Rebecca. Then we lived in Chicago West side and north side, 1973-81 Returned briefly in 82 briefly ditto in ‘96. <br>
We spent Summer ‘68 on the West side just after the riots and the assasinations earlier that terrible year. <br>
This matter of racism is absolutely our # 1 issue here. Our hearts are so scarred and we will never be at peace until our indigenous community enjoy every right and responsibility that we whites and all immigrants enjoy. A deep abiding healing Treaty is called for NOW. Our Government has little guts ( my view and I don’t ask anyone to agree w me. ) <br>
In peace and love,<br>
Isobel Bishop <br>
