"Be not deceived! Revolutions do not go backward."

- Abraham Lincoln, 1856

 

 

Above is a photo I took of the Civil War battlefield of Antietam in Maryland. On this path, called Sunken Road, soldiers dug in for a three hour battle. 5000 men died in those short hours and the road was covered with bodies. A witness said it was transformed into "a river of blood." The road forward to freedom & equality that was dreamed of during the Revolution has never been an easy stroll.
