Lots more background for white people to latch onto, hundreds of years. Why would Black Americans not be racist? Reading about Nat Turner's violence and anger forced me to remind myself, and look up slave punishments: backs broken, babies tossed with pitchforks, skin flayed..........all on a regular basis to PROPERTY. Yes, many whites were against it........but when did it end? Only with war, and hundreds of thousands dead. Notes of a Native Son, The Fire Next Time, the entire Harlem Reanissance is not enough.
Hundreds of thousands of dead whites. They died so you could be free.
Why would Black America not be racist? There is a couple hundred thousands of reasons right there.
Millions of dead blacks who really died so I could be free.
Nope. THeir deaths were part of the system and contributed nothing towards ending it.
That was white people fighting, the United States army, that freed your ancestors.
Wrong.
Blacks died fighting for freedom from day 1 long before the civil war. So stop lying to yourself.
He wasn't tanking about the small percentage of union, (or confederate) troops that were black. He was talking about slaves.
The deaths of slaves though the normal course of slavery, did not contribute to the end of slavery, other than in the pity it stirred in the hearts of whites.
Yes it did. Just get that lie out of your head asswipe, that whites died to make us free while we did nothing. The whites fighting in the civil war weren't even fighting to free slaves n the first place. That is not what they were told.
