Almost all high schools are designated as a compass location, one was named for a woman doctor who served rural areas, and team names are typically animals, not tribes or names of generals. The only statue I've seen was of a general from the War of 1812. Everyone here knows what happened in the early 20th century and in the mid 1980s. It's acknowledged. As for shit like confederate flags, I saw almost as many in south Texas.
Living here is expensive. Homes are expensive, as is rent. But the schools are very good, which is why the county is growing so fast. How do you propose getting more minorities to move further north? How do you make that happen?
The researcher said some families were compensated for land, others weren't. If the stolen property could be identified, then maybe the county could compensate those families. What else?
