When I’m wrong, I believe in admitting it. That includes misplaced solicitations or endorsements. And, if they’re made publicly, then any retraction and/or apology should also be public. So here we are.
Sometimes in our quest to do Good we can be deceived. A person or an organization may seem to be aligned with our ideals and values, show excellent pedigree and credentials, but in reality are none of these. It may take time for the Truth to become apparent, but I believe in my heart, that it always does.
