Yes, Black People Used to Whistle Dixie
The WaPo runs with a story about a Virginia professor who objected to a history book which contained factual information that blacks served as Confederate soldiers in the CSA.
From the WaPo here:
The issues first came to light after College of William & Mary historian Carol Sheriff opened her daughter’s copy of “Our Virginia” and saw the reference to black Confederate soldiers.
“It’s disconcerting that the next generation is being taught history based on an unfounded claim instead of accepted scholarship,” Sheriff said. “It concerns me not just as a professional historian but as a parent.”
It is not an unfounded claim. Blacks fought alongside whites against the north for a variety of reasons. Some were going to be granted their freedom. Some were enraged at the invasion of Northern troops. The South was the home to many black families. And pictures don’t lie.
Liberals can’t wrap their minds around blacks defending their homes as slaves in the South. They can try to erase it from history all they like, but they are going to have to remove grave stones to do it.
The South was home to many black families? Haha good god you’re dumb. Yeah, they felt so strongly about defending their slave homes because being raped and beaten was just too much fun to give up. On the bright side, the only people that come across this poorly made website are because of the oddball google search. I mean, 31 twitter followers is incredibly impressive haha.
There were black families in the south Jess. Slave and free. Don’t be such a racist and a fool to think that slave owners raped and beat their slaves. Most were very well treated and many were considered part of the larger family.
Wait, are you actually denying the existance of slave owners raping their slaves? Really? So honestly, you really did become a Redskins fan because the KKK like them right?
If it happened, it was a rarity. Owning a slave did not equate to free pussy. They were investments in a labor force, were expensive, and it would be stupid to mistreat them out of pure meanness.
Most slave owners were christians of deep faith which they shared with their slaves.
I have no idea what you are talking about the Redskins for. They are my home team since I am in NOVA. The KKK was the terror arm of the Democrat party, which is why so many blacks still vote Democrat.
