That is what I was guessing. 20 years before I arrived for someone....just one person....to stand up and say NO this isn't right. And then 20 years after it happened to me still for someone to stand up and say....that was wrong!! It makes me sick.

And I would venture to say that Tambo abuse goes back farther than the date given.
What about the HS principal who molested HS girls in the 1950's?
He got sent home.
That was good.
But after that ???????????
Why didn't more people get sent out?
They should have been reported to the authorities in Bolivia and in the U.S.
And what did the principal do back in the U.S.?
What about the Tambo perp who lives across from a grade school?

WHAT ABOUT IT ???????????

My guess is that the silence is going to be deafening.
Oh, me of little faith.......

Yes, that pricipal from the 1950s definitely needs to be included. Would those dates not cover him? More than a few people know about his deeds. He is dead, but that doesn't mean we stopped caring about his victims and their need to be validated and supported.

Unless those who were abused are willing to talk nothing can happen at all. All God's Children is about the abuse at Mamou mostly in the 60s. Yet there was abuse before the 60's. There are some who suspect there was abuse in the 40's.

It is very important to tell your story no matter how long ago it happened. It helps the story teller and those who listen become brave enough to tell their own story. The more stories people hear the more the non abused will realize they must also take a stand. There are hundreds of people who have not experienced abuse and can't even imagine it. Yes stories of abuse are not happy stories but need to be told so the next generation does not have as many abuse stories. Only informed people can stop child abuse.

I am willing to tell my story! If I hada ghostwriter it would be in book form also

You can write a book and get it published by Publish on Demand. I understand it is a cheap way to go. I know Amazon sells them as well as others. I think someone might need to consider this as a way to expose this hypocrisy of NTM. Full stop

Thought from left field, why not do a combined book. A chapter each. Each chapter a different persons story.

Go for it!
The stories need to be told.
I'll do the punctuation.
