And in its foundational belief that no matter the individual character, all that mattered was that a person was Black was the same thinking the Nazis engaged in that a person's race was the only thing that mattered so that it was enough that someone was a Jew for them to be killed.

Stop lying

I don't hate people's color. I hate behavior that I deeply resent.

I have several ancestors who fought for the Confederacy and I wouldn't want to see their names on ANYTHING. Even if they did something heroic to save their fellow soldiers, they were still on the wrong side and don't deserve to be honored. Their cause was not noble and they were not honorable men. They did not possess characteristics that we want to emulate today. I don't know their individual motivations for fighting, maybe they felt pressured by their family or community, but several were slave owners and they were not in danger of losing their land, just their wealth and human property. If I want to honor my heritage, there are plenty of other people in my family tree whose names and lives are more worthy of remembering.

People have the right to tell you that they are not safe to be in charge of Black students because they choose heroes that wanted to keep Black people enslaved. If your ancestors fought for evil and you honor them, what does that make you? And don't go comparing this to the founding fathers issue. George Washington had slaves, and should be criticized for that, but he is famous for fighting for a republican form a government and refusing to take dictatorial power when it was offered to him. Meanwhile, Lee, Jackson, and Ashby fought AGAINST that republican form of government and for the right to wield autocratic authority over people of color. That's the only reason we even talk about them. They would have been forgotten otherwise (Lee might have been a minor footnote for his term as commandant of West Point.) If you honor your pro-treason, pro-slavery ancestors, the rest of us are allowed to judge you, think much, much less of you, and condemn your policies. And, indeed, that is all a righteous, decent person could do. This isn't really a complicated issue. Your feelings about your heritage mean nothing when that heritage says Black people should be kept in slavery, and there is nothing that can change that THAT is what the Confederacy was all about. (And don't bother with the states' rights argument. I'm a historian. I know that BS was mostly added as a cause of the war later. Confederate speeches and the declarations of secession before and during the war all made it very clear that the main cause of the war, first, last, and always, was slavery. The primary documents couldn't be clearer on this.)

​@@rebeccacanalesCRT people! 😂😂You don't even know what that is apparently. It is not a school subject, it is taught in law school. Stop listening to lies and talk to actual teachers, look at their curriculum. So tired of this nonsense.

@@carollund8251 There you go a generalizing and painting a broadbrush. Critical Race Theory (CRT) is an academic and legal framework that examines the intersection of race and U.S. law, positing that racism is systemic and an ingrained in the fabric of legal systems and policies, rather than merely the product of individual biases and prejudices. CRT teaches that America is an evil racist empire and that racism will never end until America is erased from existence and the US Constitution abolished. It emerged in the mid-1970s through the work of legal scholars such as Derrick Bell, Kimberlé Crenshaw, and Richard Delgado. These scholars argued that the gains of the civil rights movement had stalled and that the law played a role in maintaining the status quo of racial inequality. I agree with it up to where it demonizes America as a country and seeks the destruction of the US Constitution. The rest of what you said is complete nonsense. CRT has been influential in various fields beyond law, including education, political science, and sociology, influencing discussions on how policies and practices perpetuate racial disparities. While Critical Race Theory (CRT) originated in the legal academic field, and is primarily taught at the graduate level in law schools, the concepts and ideas associated with CRT have also been integrated into other academic disciplines and levels of education. In universities, it is often explored in graduate studies, particularly in fields like education, sociology, and political science, where scholars examine systemic inequalities and the intersection of race with other social identifiers. At the undergraduate level, elements of CRT has been included in courses that deal with racial studies, social justice, or history, though the depth of coverage would vary depending on the course and institution. In K-12 education, while CRT itself as a theory is not typically a part of the curriculum, themes such as the history of racism and civil rights and the wickedness of America might be discussed, which can overlap with some of the issues CRT addresses.The inclusion of elements of CRT in elementary and secondary school education is designed to brainwash American children into believing this country is evil, the Constitution is a product of racism that must be abolished, and that the founders and their descendents are all inherently evil. It's greatest failure is that it demonizes entire groups of people while purporting to foster understanding. In reality CRT is a massive failure and a threat to America's very existence. It's a threat to the freedoms we inherited from our ancestors. Freedom of Speech to the extent not allowed in any other country. Freedom not only to hold your own religious beliefs but also the freedom and right to practice your religion in public spaces even in the presence of those who don't agree with your religious beliefs, freedom of the press which was not created for the professional news media but was created for every individual American citizen. The right to own and posses guns for the purpose of overthrowing a fascist or dictatorial government. The right to trial by jury for major crimes and that result in major punishments such as death, exile, or even deportation. The right to be treated as innocent until a court finds you guilty. Freedom of movement, for citizens, to move between states. Slavery is not on this list because owning slaves, while tolerated, was never a right anywhere in the US. Not even in the Confederacy. You think those wealthy land owners started a war and had poor people fighting for them in order for everyone to own slaves? Hell no. They started a war only to defend their own right to own slaves. They had no intention of giving that right to anyone else. Kind of like how Lincoln abolished slavery in the seceding states but not in the states that remained loyal to the Union. Gotta love the hypocrisy of the Confederate and Union governments.

​@@PhistingZombie29Confederates were Democrats 🤡🤡

We are all slaves

They would if they could.

Remind us again.... What were those rights in which they fought for?

I think it's important to add that they also demanded that non-slave states respect their "right to property" by returning escaped slaves and demanded that they be allowed to travel across free states with their slaves. They didn't just want in back in their home states. They wanted it everywhere. It was also the one aspect that confederate states had no control of in the confederate constitution. Confederate state's rights BUT they had to remain slave states and abide by "property rights" of other slave states. It's hard for them to argue it was all about states rights as they demanded other states give up their own rights.. :(

The Daughters of the Confederacy were instrumental in literally "white washing" American History books in the South. They softened the horror of slavery; pushed the bogus "states rights" cause; erected 100s of statues and memorials that reinforced Jim Crow for 100 years; and successfully parlayed the name Civil War, to make it more palatable than The War of Rebellion - which is still the official name.

Believed all over the north too ..and black folk owned slaves up and down the land..William Ellison...? Read some real history.. Most southerners did not own slaves and fought for their homes, towns and families..just like the Boys in Blue. Civil Wars are always tragic as nations go to war with themselves..

@@seewulf2385 As historian James McPherson has showed in 'For Cause and Comrades', based on soldiers' letter, the rebel soldiers understood they were fighting for slavery and supported slavery, whether they owned slaves or not. You are promoting a Big Lie that not owning slaves meant a person had no interest in slavery. Slavery meant that every white man, no matter how degraded, was better than any Black man, and social status matters. White men looked to one day acquire slaves as a route toward 'the southern American dream' and could also rent slaves to work their lands. And then there is that slaves tended to be owned by the patriarch of a family with his sons, nephews, friends and hangers-on benefitting, particularly by being able with impunity to rape the female slaves sso that every plantation featured mixed race children bearing the stamp of their master's face. As southern diarist Mary Chestnut wrote: “The mulattos one sees in every family … resemble the white children. Any lady is ready to tell you who is the father of all the mulatto children in everybody’s household but her own. Those, she seems to think, drop from the clouds.” As to Black people 'owning slaves up and down the land, that's bullshit. There were some mixed race slave owners in Louisiana and that's it. And the racist feature of American slavery wasn't that only white people could _own_ slaves but only Black people could _be_ slaves. You are either profoundly ignorant of the history or are a massive liar. On, and, BTW, as McPherson shows, while relatively few United States soldiers were abolitionists at the war's start, as they came in contact with the reality of the cruelty of slavery as they advanced into its territory and as they realized that slavery was what motivated and sustained the rebels, they became practical if not moral abolitionists as the war went on. Rebel soldiers fought for slavery all the way through and knew that th expansion and perpetuation of slavery was the cause they fought for while US soldiers came to understand the depths of the immorality of the rebels as they came to know slavery, so the two sides were not so similar as you claim.

@@seewulf2385 , this is so disingenuous. Yes, there were some slave-owning Blacks, but they were not up and down the land; they were primarily in New Orleans. However, that's a few thousands enslaved, compared to four million held by Whites. There were also only a few thousand enslaved people in the Mid-Atlantic states and, again, four million in the South (and border states). There were not enslaved people "all over the North." The New England states had banned slavery in their first state constitutions. Most Southerners who didn't own slaves still supported slavery and White supremacy because it meant they weren't at the bottom of the social hierarchy. Sure, some fought because they considered the Union army an invading army, but an honest look at the letters they left behind (might I recommend "For Cause and Comrade" by James McPherson) demonstrates that most Confederates, even the poor ones, were all in for slavery. The strongly anti-slavery Southerners supported the Union, not the Confederacy. If you cherry-pick factoids without providing context or scale, it's no different than an outright lie. Your goal was to make it seem like both sides were equally bad or it was too complicated to tell. None of that is true. Most of the bad was on the Southern side, since they were refusing to even let slavery die slowly AND they started the war. It's not too nuanced or complicated to know who was right and wrong here. Find some moral clarity and just condemn the treasonous slavers who pushed the nation into a stupid war that killed some 800,000 people.

If only the slave trading tribes of Africa..who owned so many slaves they happily shipped their surplus over the Atlantic or to the Muslim world weren't so ravenous and greedy.Black people owned slaves all the way up to Conn...Religious. whites and far sighted black visionaries pushed for an end. but when Lincoln was elected the Southern Cotton Kings ran state governments and tried to leave the Union.700,000 dead and a legacy we are still left with.. Slavery is still rampant all over Africa..but at least the British and French Sailors who died on the High Seas have it confined to the AFrican Continent .They died trying to end the slave trade much loved by the Black rulers there..America payed a heavy price in blood and treasure to end the "peculiar"institution in these United States.
