At Chinese Reconciliation Park in Tacoma. In 1885 the entire Chinese population of Tacoma was forced to leave and Chinatown was burned to the ground.

We seem to need monuments to retain something of the past. Well done. V

A small token of reconciliation that cannot make up for what happened back then. V

It never ceases to amaze me at how horrible people can be to people. Looks like a beautiful location for this park.

Similar to the devastation that happened to a successful black part of Oklahoma city in the '20s. A park helps very little I suspect

A real taste of China. V. I am afraid that It will be a very long way before this kind of action stops all over the world....

love the subtle diagonal from tree and the smaller roofs...the lot of Chinese has improved immensely up here due to the multi-cultural mindset of most people...there are however still backwards thinkers with closed minds on race..

A beautiful capture, but not sure they'd want to reconcile after that.

Must’ve been horrible for these people. Not a lot has changed since then although it’s not as quite as visible I reckon.
