Great piece, and yet I am struck by the complete absence of reference to Native Americans who were also enslaved and denied rights. An excellent novel by Geraldine Brooks entitled Caleb's Crossing gives a short version of relationships between Christians and Native Americans (especially when one wants to attend Harvard).
Official rhetoric has helped fuel an escalation of tension between the United States and Iran. Do recent negotiations mark a change in direction, or just a temporary detour from the highway to military attack?
