Great letter. At the Old Courthouse Museum in Vicksburg is an exhibit of Black Confederates that fought in Mississippi regiments. There are dozens of photos of them wearing Confederate uniforms and brandishing weapons of various descriptions. There are also letters from these vets on display. It's a real eye-opener for the non-believers.

BCD - I work with lots of folks in Kennesaw, right near Roswell. Great place!

I'd like to check that out myself sometime. We had a similar exhibit on dispaly here for about a year at the local Confederate Museum. If someone sees one of these displays, and reads the "Slave Narratives" and "Time on the Cross"; a completely different view of the South (from what is taught in the statist empire schools) emerges.

Indeed. Here's a link to their website. It's a great place to visit.

While you're in Vicksburg, be sure to tour the National Military Park.
