My late mother (died sept. 11 last year) was a staunch Goldwater supporter and also worked tirelessly for the civil rights movement in the south....that is until she realized the communists had infiltrated the movement and were coming to the south from up north in droves to cause trouble and chaos. She told me about it years ago. The other big lie of the democrats is that they were instrumental in the civil rights movement. They were the klan where we lived and tried to intimidate my family for my mothers work. the dems did not get involved in the civil rights movement until many many years later. It was republicans who were on the forefront of the work to grant blacks equal rights. God rest her soul. Don’t worry, I will continue to post the truth...she taught me well.
Yes, indeed, the revisionist history is sickening. To see Blacks end up back on the old Democrat plantation and singularly linked to the ideology of Stalinist enslavement is one of the most revolting developments in American history. That leftist ideology has done more damage, physically and psychologically, to the Black community than bondage in the fields and/or a Klansman’s wettest dream could possibly have done or imagined. Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass would be horrified.
