Are Mainstream Civil War Magazines Racist?
Old Virginia Blog ^ | 02/25/2016 | Richard Williams

No, they're not. The question is, of course, a rhetorical one. I subscribe to several popular Civil War publications and enjoy all of them very much. However, if you agree with the "logic" of some folks, one might be able to at least make the accusation. Allow me to explain.

I haven’t looked at one in years. I just imagined they were totally politically correct. I doubt I’m wrong, too!

Can you imagine today’s Civil War magazines being anything less than politically correct? It’s a wonder every article isn’t about slavery and how African-Americans won the war with the help of the red man and woman and Hispanics.

Well, they certainly shouldn’t show Confederate battle flags in the stories and photos-— SARC/ on LARGE.

What idiocy! Rewrite the history and it will just go away, like Stalin’s photos with his former henchmen— just... erased. You cannot erase history, and you CAN lie about the true history. About which- see Benghazi and “I’ve never lied”.

Hooooly Crap!

Who gave up their pursuit of happiness and in the case of hundreds of thousands, also, gave up their lives to end slavery? White American Males, you know the ones who are the cause of all the world’s problems(/sarc), that’s who ended slavery.

Basically if you're a white woman and give birth to a white baby these people will call you a racist. Everything is racist to them.
