Bernard continues his rewrite of UPC history

EDIT:

In was "in part" slavery indeed. Unfortunately, it was a small part in the minds of the leaders of that day. They did not give a care about the slaves. Their only concern was to destroy the economics of the South and they used the degree to "free the slaves" to do that. Then they came down here and restructured the south. Propaganda is older than slavery itself in this country.

But...it does not "diminish" the awfulness of slavery, I agree... nor does it diminish the terrible prejudice of the black race by many people that permeates today. Cracks made about Obama's ethnicity by some is still derogatory here --today-- in 2012.

I agree that slavery, both black and white should have never been allowed in this country. But the leaders did allow it...what's more, they used the bible to justify it.

They said all men are created equal in our Declaration of Independence, then some went about declaring a black man to be just so much of a percentage of human.



But the war was NOT about stopping the awful practice of slavery. The propagandists used the black race as yet another pawn to hide the actual reason for the war. They had to in order to keep their agenda quiet lest the people of that day threw out those working to further advance that agenda.
