If the Palestine Chamber of Commerce would truly like to bring people together, they should take a lesson from Balch Springs, Texas Mayor Dr. Carrie Gordon who held a Juneteenth celebration in her city this past June 2012 that included a mock civil war battle and Confederate and Union soldiers marching in their parade among other events and activities. She also allowed the SCV to set up an educational booth in the Civic Center. I was there in a CSA uniform and it was great!
