    Re: Share your thoughts on September Dawn and the Mountain Meadows Massacre

    If you want to know the true story of what happened, see the documentary by Brian Patrick "Burying The Past: Legacy Of The Mountain Meadows Massacre."  Sections of the film were shown on tonight's broadcast along with his interview on how he declined to associate his film with "September Dawn."  The documentary "Burying The Past" is a powerful, moving, haunting film that has won 11 awards and covers President Hinckley's dedication of a monument to the victims, how descendants of the massacre are still struggling to heal wounds today, interviews with historians and an investigation of what actually took place September 11, 1857.  Rather than approaching the story with a one-sided attack or agenda as "September Dawn" has done, "Burying The Past" presents all sides and lets the audience decide for themselves.  Patrick has said he made the film to bring people together, and promote healing.  If you want to get a copy of the film you can go to Patrick's website at www.buryingthepast.com
