Blacks had dropped to 14.1% of the population by 1860 (slaves were 12.6% of the total population). The percentage dropped between 1860 and 1914 because of large-scale immigration, mostly from Europe.
In 1790 there were about 700,000 slaves and 60,000 free persons of color. By 1860 those figures had grown to just under 4 million slaves and just under half a million free persons of color. So the free black population was growing at a faster rate than the slave population.

Calling out a racist like Diane Lane on her racism, is RACIST!!!
I'll bet the demented old biddy "remembers" when the Republicans filibustered the Civil Rights Act back in 1964... LOL!
