As I have pointed out before, the great Negro educator, Booker T. Wshington, strongly urges the point in the address that shot him into prominence as his people's spokesman, of the deep love that many of the former slaves had for the White family they had served.

Booker T. Washington Address.

The denial of historic truth, of course, is typical of the hate-mongers, who are apparently willing to stoop to any fabricated version of reality, so long as it will serve their end of turning one group against another. Lies with a vengeance are the standard tactic of those who seek to disrupt society for devious motives.

For independent confirmation of the implied background of Washington's Address, above, readers should check out the published book length study by the chief actuary for the Prudential Insurance Co., Frederic L. Hoffmann, in the 1890s, which documents how far the Reconstructionists set back the Southern Negro, before Booker T. Washington emerged to begin to effect a positive change.

And that love in good families went both ways. These women NURSED THE CHILDREN AND TAUGHT THEM SPEECH. African accents influenced the vowel sounds of the southern Americans.

And as we well know, the other kind of love went both ways too, with true love affairs developing between people kept apart by skin color and caste. It is foolish to think every mixed child came from rape or forced sex.
