H.K Edgerton bump! Both the NAACLP and the Ku Klux Klan are hopping mad and lying down in the same bed for once - how dare a black man celebrate the South??? No doubt Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will shortly denounce him as a tool of the Southern redneck conspiracy.

Thanks for the post.

Pretty poor article, but at least they spelled his name right.

March Across Dixie

Edgerton said that instead of white people giving reparations to black people for slavery, the North should pay reparations to the South for what he calls the North’s war crimes.

I'm sorry but Mr. Edgerton just lost me on this one. I respected him for trying to uphold what he sees as his heritage, but when his heritage includes trying to pick my pocket for bullsh*t reparations then he's no different than Robinson and the boobs from N'Cobra.

Heck, I'd settle for making sure schools teach kids REAL history, not just the victor's side of the story.

Are there plans for local FR Chapters to join Edgerton as he marches through their towns?

I'm Confederate renactor and I'd be proud to march beside Mr Edgerton. He knows what the Civil War was really all about. Bravo HK and safe journey. Somewhere up in heaven Jeff Davis and Bobby Lee are smiling.

"Civil War buff and Flat Rock resident Ted Rydin, who is white, said Edgerton’s view on war crimes and reparations “is so far out of line I can’t believe it. It just doesn’t make any sense at all.”

.....I take Rydin's comments with a grain of salt.....Flat Rock is an upscale community full of retirees from all over the country.....the South is merely a geographic convenience for many folks these days....they have no loyalty to it because they have no family history connected with it....

Good luck to everybody!

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Hey, y'all see this? Should the HOT Chapter arrange to meet Mr. Edgerton when he gets to Austin?

He said the North stole their gold, raped their women, and after the war was over, robbed them of their history.

Yep, send me my check!
