I've heard the argument that democrat segregationists and racists were actually republicans in disguise but history indicates that they were democrats who voted for democrats who voted for segregation and other democrat issues. The liberal media which turned on a dime from racist to plantation manager is responsible for the democrat party's fake history.
It was also Northern Democrats who fought for Civil Rights along with Northern Republicans. It was not a Democratic/Republican issue, it was a North/South Issue
There were no Southern Republicans who supported civil rights
