Its difficult to believe that the younger generation has no interest in their history, as a family or as a community. The value of history is to learn from our mistakes in the past so we wont repeat them again. We also learn what DID work. We DO still teach American history in schools, right? There a good reason why we do that. There is no doubt in my mind that the younger generation can, and will, learn a lot from the ones who went before them, be it their parents and grandparents, or leaders in Miami Springs. I have much more confidence in the younger generation than maybe some others do, in that regard. Dr. Mel P. Johnson
