I don't understand what specifically the mayor or the author of this piece


wants.

"We can celebrate the win, but this win doesn't undo the 400+ year-old oppressive legacy of Virginia nor does it erase the legacy that this community was built on. I plead with you to remember that many of our community members have experienced 'summer of hate' moments throughout their entire lives. What is our work? Don't crawl back into the corner of comfortable lies! Please stay with me on this path of uncomfortable healing."

Once we do the difficult work the mayor describes, Charlottesville will have a redemption story it can fully claim.

-

What specifically does one do to 'not crawl back into the corner of comfortable lies', and how do we know when it has been accomplished?
