Letter to Mayor Mike Rawlings about Fair Park

As I review Fair Park I realize that it is a monument to white supremacy is many ways that aren't so obvious. Fair Park needs to be seen as a triumphalist celebration of a white supremacist state. This letter touched upon the more obvious things I could see at the time when I wrote the letter.

I leave for the reader to consider the theme "Six Flags Over Texas" and its white supremacist idea incorporated into it. The Confederate flag really is only a minor part of it. 

I continue to do research into Fair Park.  In this page is the letter I sent him and also the supplementary materials. This was one of six certified letters I sent to Mayor Rawlings. I sent a copy of the letter along with supporting materials to all 14 city council members with proof of mailing.

In the following there is the certified mail postcard, the letter, and then supplemental materials that were sent with the letter.
