The belief that the Negro is biologically inferior to the white is one of the white European's contributions to the Western world. That belief was dearly held by the overwhelming number of those who fought for the CSA and still held by many of their apologists today. We who are in the pay of George Soros, I cashed my check today, realize this is an abhorrent belief and that honoring those whose historical contribution to attempting to maintain that peculiar institution is what got a street named, a college dorm named, a statue erected perpetuates the mistake of having a society honor racists.
It is more complex in evaluating people like Jefferson. Woodrow Wilson was terrible. But CSA generals fought to preserve slavery which was the overwhelming reason for those southern states to attempt to leave the United States. They fought against the United States in the support of keeping slavery. This is not something we should be honoring or celebrating.
Hoping that my payment from George for this comment will come soon.
