Hopefully, it will educate in the positive way you describe. ;)

“Hopefully, it will educate in the positive way you describe. ;)”

Indeed. But if the opportunity is not offered, the education will not happen. It is a pretty quilt, and our family has a few, though nothing as confusing as that one.

Frankly, I’m rather surprised that folks are making as big a deal about it. The swastika is a pervasive historical/political/religious symbol, as evidenced by all of the pictures in this thread. I dare say, most people don’t know that. Being part Irish, part indian, and part human (as my German father told me) I suppose I should be pretty well imprinted on the swastika. It’s just a symbol though, with a complex history.
