My thoughts from our first day in Washington D.C is placed a lot on how much emphasis the capitol puts on George Washington. I know he's the first president and the "founding father" but I didn't expect almost everything in the capitol to be based off of him. Also we discussed how slavery and racism supposedly started and I just find it incredibly disturbing that they treated blacks so terribly with not one bit of remorse, and then had the nerve to try to justify it. It's really disturbing.
