Was Southern Manhattan part of the Confederacy?

Thousands upon thousands of fine, young men died for the Confederacy, seeking to limit the runaway powers being usurped by the Federal Government.

Contrary to modern Black rhetoric and the yammering of various Leftists, who clearly feel ‘it’s all about them’, the fighting was about runaway centralized power, not cotton pickers.

No but as the city as whole was sympathetic to the south since it was even then a Dim stronghold. Also of course there was the famous draft riot during the war.

The New York Democrats started the race riots in NYC during the civil war, and protested the US fight against the south.

“Tennessee-raised Ochs, who was buried with a Confederate flag after his death in 1935”
Dig him up!

I’m not a Confederate flag fan, but I am a fan of freedom. Happy to see this, but I was kind of disappointed about the particulars. I was hoping that there was a sudden protest involving lots of people bringing Confederate flags to the subway station.
