You neo-rebs don't like to consider the primary sources, but there it is.

LOL!! So the actual letters written by Black Confederates and documented sightings by yankees are not 'primary' sources?

And when professional award winning scholars use them, you make personal attacks on those professionals.

It's not a personal attack Walt. The man interviewed on the World Socialist Web Site!! And before you throw Masters up, he's not my primary source. If I remember I only used one quote from him one time. And I'm not using his opinion as fact either

One letter does not an interpretation make. There is no credible evidence that more than a handful of blacks held arms in rebel ranks.

If you could show that he used bogus or out of context sources, you'd have more ammo against the good doctor.
