300,000 Yankees died for their freedom. When do we get the respected deserved for their sacrifice? This does not include all the wounded.

Make the KKK party pay for it. And while the dems are paying back the slaves they can chip in for the Yankees as well.

Those Yankees did not die for their freedom, they died to consolidate power in DC. I wish people would at least know what the war was about without just coming up with what the media was spewing at the time.

Of course many “liberated” blacks were pressed into service, hence the underground railroad to Canada.
