"The day that the army of Virginia allows a negro regiment to enter their lines as soldiers they will be degraded, ruined and disgraced," -- Robert Toombs of Georgia, 1865.LOL - Toombs was against the plan for all-black regiments, so what. The Confederate units used blacks intermingled with their white troops throughout the war. That is what Frederick Douglass is pointing out in the quote you had no real answer to. I'm sorry you think Frederick Douglass was a liar, but I don't. Study history, not "historians".
