Nothing wrong with pointing out the negative aspects of anyone's history. The wrong comes when that history is dwelled upon and used in an attempt to tar those who had nothing to do with making that history.
As often said and believed in the military, it takes ten or more "atta boys" to wipe out one "ah shit". The same applies to history.
Slavery was, and still is, a blot upon the history of this world. Blacks, Whites, Asians, and just about every other ethnic population had a hand in it. However, slavery ended in the United States over one hundred and fifty years ago, and it is far past time to leave it to the historians and quit dwelling upon it.
It is also far past time for America to quit classifing people according to the color of their skin, or their ethnic/racial background.
Check out some reading material about the Jim Crow south. Blacks were treated as bad and in some cases worse, than when they were salves. Slaves had more "value" and you couldn't kill them indiscriminately.
Check out some of the photos that are out there of whites hanging black men right on up to the 50ties.
But I can't figure out how Republicans let the black vote slip away from them. All the Jim Crow south was supported by Democrat governors.
Seems like Republican's had the black vote till Barry voted against the Civil Rights Act. Even though Barry had supported previous versions of a civil rights act.
Weird shit.
Not really. Blacks started voting dimocraptic during FDR's attempt at socialism.
With one MAJOR caveat..... I'm talking the ones that were ALLOWED to vote. Mostly in the North.
In the South? Republicans couldn't even vote. There was no place to vote during Republican Primaries..... If they even had one.
And a Black Woman or, especially, a Black Man showing up to vote at a Southern Polling place....? Forget it. He'd be lucky to make it home alive. Which is doubtful.
Credit where credit is due.... Northern dimocraps weren't
quite the racist scum their Southern Cousins were. They weren't all that bad. But they were far from being Republicans, there was some racism in them.
But what gets me is how they allowed them in the party at all. How could they tolerate the hatred and racism of Southern dimocraps?
They looked the other way. They pretended not to notice that FDR's TVA was abusing and discriminating against Blacks because that's who they are... Power-hungry animals with no regard for human life or human misery whatsoever.
Love how FDR sent all those American Citizens to Concentration Camps during WWII. Nothing racist there, huh?
dimocraps don't care about anything other than the relentless acquisition of power by any means. And anybody that gets in their way? Watch out....
