We were new there then and not really “in the loop”, but we’ve since read the book about it and it was pretty right on as far as we could tell from speaking with people.
I do know that there are still areas (well, were there when we lived there)that have no growth in them near where the incident occurred. It was hard to talk about then because it was very frowned upon. Very interesting for sure.
Interesting.
That lack of growth stuff seems to last many years—decades even.
Fascinating.
