Comments: After the Civil War, Yankees continued, as they do today, their encouragement of integration for everyone else.

"But slavery was ill-suited to an industrial state. It lacked flexibility. You had to feed and maintain slaves whether business was up or down. They were a burden and a responsibility."

Oh bless his compassionate, Southern heart.

Notice why Fred doesn't mention why the Blacks moved out of the ever so friendly South. Or the wonderful conditions the Blacks "enjoyed" in the South. No, it's so much easier to go all "Yankee" this and "Yankee" that.

Yawn.

Surprised he didn't tell us all how the "South is gonn'a do it again". What, get your ass kicked?

It's 2015, get the freak over it already.

If fairness Fred did mention how wonderful places like NY City was during the Civil War; they hanged the blacks, burned sections of the city and generally made life miserable for them. Life in the free and caring North was so enjoyable. (read some of Horace Greely's news articles of the time)

Oh yeah, lots of Yankees were absolutely thrilled to head to Dixie and fight. For a $100, you could buy some fool to go in your place. Kind of like running off to Canada.

Awhile back a LIEberal woman told me she was "comfortable with diversity" and what she really told me was that she has never spent much time in close proximity of negroe's, much like this whiney idiot at the top of the page.

I am sure a lot of Black Negro Afro-American People of Color would jump at the chance to return to their ancestral homelands and claim their rightful heritage.

Marcus Garvey had the right idea: the return of the African diaspora to their ancestral lands.

Free boat passage could be arranged by diverting money currently being spent on food stamps and free phones.

They could join with the spirit of Haile Selassie and the Lion, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah in Ethiopia.

Besides the climate there is more suitable for certain racial groups.

Just make that the "Marcus Garvey Trans-Atlantic Canoe Race" with a $50,000,000 prize to each of the first five canoes. Caonoes must hold 100 paddlers and have signed backers for 1000 people who will join them in Ethiopia.

No limit to the number of canoes that can sign up.
