There over 13,000 blacks in the Stone Wall Brigade i guess they fought for Slaves too! i guess there traiors too huh Duma$$!
You bet the were! There were also blacks who fought for the British when they were "freed" to fight for the crown during the Revolution. Service at gunpoint isn't the same as a VOLUNTEER fought for the south.
That blacks in the Confederate Army were allowed to fight for the south because the Confederacy was desperate for man power, to the point that they'd actually allow blacks to be free, which if they'd of taken that tack before the war, there would have BEEN NO WAR. They didn't let those blacks fight out of the goodness of their heart, and many of them would have run to the north if they didn't think the Confederate officers would shoot them.
