330,000 WHITE Union military knowingly went to their deaths to free the African slaves during the Civil War, they followed the directives and emancipation orders of their government, a government they elected. I have never heard an establishment, professional, progressive/ African-American ever recognize, much less thank these dead men for their sacrifices, nor recognize the 260,000 White Union military who were wounded and/or grievously disabled, nor the widows, nor the children, nor the families of the military who also suffered.
Obama chose to not attend the 150th anniversary of Lincoln’s address at Gettysburg. To do so would be an unavoidable exposure of the distortion of the Progressive/Liberal history that the main reason for the war was to save the Union. It would also of the show the neglect of the African Americans debt to Whites regarding the recognition of these sacrifices.
...........Arlington Cemetery is about all American Wars...., Gettysburg is about freeing the Black Slave...... PERIOD... and as far as I am concerned that is why THE OBAMA avoided Gettysburg. PERIOD.
Not to mention the whites that helped with the Civil Rights movement, where is the thanks and the gratitude?
I am sick of being hated for my white Russian/Irish skin. My parents’ lives and my grandparents’ lives survived famine, concentration camps, alcoholism, it has not been a walk in the park and no one owned anyone else.
So eff off if you want reparations from me, reparations for what pray tell? No, I do not have a guilty conscience.
what is it with “african american” quotes on your post? Do you lib white guilt and cannot simply place “black” in your post?
