Ford, who is black, said that before the war, his ancestors were slaves. After the war, they were free men and women.

A fact that is not fully understood by the NAACP today. You would think it was the 1850's the way they talk about the "conditions" they have to endure in a white America. For crying out loud it isn't even like the south in the 1950's.

I wonder if his attackers believe that the South would have voluntarily given up slavery. The answer is “NO”.

Harry Turtledove’s alternate history run at the Civil War is good reading, and makes a thinking person do some more thinking.

Anyone who is beholding to the government for the necessities is a slave. 150 years after the War of Norther Aggression started, we are STILL trying to free blacks from the DemocRats.
