Facing History and Ourselves is the corrective to Dismissed History.
If we ignore, dismiss or distort our history it will totally effect our present and future.
We will have little or no basis to make effective decisions.
This Bak Chess-scape provides ample images of past disasters:
- Pawns huddled in underground spaces
- Broken pawns as witnesses to the broken chess board
- Bonfire of pawns aka bodies
Have we learned from the past? Unlikely.
Can we learn? Hopefully.
