African Americans descended from the slaves will get what they are owed and new immigrants who did not build the nation should get to the back of the line.
In the American legal system, people arenât punished or rewarded for the sins or tribulations of their ancestors. Even if a serious attempt were made to right historic wrongs, thereâs no way that would work on a practical level.
Ah Iâm not the only one whose noticed it then. Interesting. There are now Asian members of the Alt Right too , so it does not surprise me if this site has been according to you accused of harboring them.
The nation was less than half-settled by 1860, and no nation-building took place until slavery was abolished. In fact, much of the nationâs wealth was destroyed when white Northerners fought to end slavery and keep those states that had seceded in the Union.
They didnât fight the South for that reason , check your history. Slavery was an excuse there was plenty in the North with slaves they just knew it would hurt the south more than the north.if slavery was banned. No northern white man cared about slaves except perhaps a few men.of God, preachers and such like.
I didnât say every soldier and soldierâs family was against slavery, I said that they fought to end slavery. They did not desert the Union army, and their families remained steadfast no matter what they thought about slavery personally, or what doubts they may have otherwise had.
The end result was the Emancipation Proclamation, and slavery was abolished everywhere soon after the war ended.
Union families gave their lives and their livelihoods to end slavery.
Yet @brasd refuses to give them credit for their lives, their steadfastness, or the very real sacrifices they made during the US Civil War. You seem to delight in moving the goal posts time and time again in order to justify black-on-white and black-on-Chinese racism and hatred. (oh they gave their lives? Who cares since discrimination didnât end, those lives mean and meant nothing)
