“From my own family’s experience, it took six generations to forgive the Yankees for the damage they inflicted upon our family.”
We’re not too keen on them yet. But I will say we should have picked our own damned cotton.
Our family even picked our own cotton. The blacks belonged to the Yankees around here. After the war our family picked our own cotton as the blacks were too haughty and received too many government benefits to work like that. Even during the 1950’s to the 70’s we did the hard labour as they sat on their welfare butts and collected government money.
