You have to read between the lines of this article, because it never uses the word "Democrat" to identify the shooters or local government or former Confederate actors, the final paragraph does give this big clue: "Northerners angry over the violence helped the Republican Party take control of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in the Congressional elections of 1866."
So this article is somewhat dishonest for failing to make that Confederate-Democrat connection. Reconstruction, especially for the 10 former states in rebellion, was a Republican program. So add that to the "Black Past" that this article purports (but fails) to deliver.
Exactly. I shared this with AroomaNuminahh when you brought this to my attention. I was aware of who they did not name and you are correct. Below is what i shared.
What many people are not aware of is the Democrats created the KKK. While they mention attacks on African Americans they fail to include Republicans being attacked to ensure Democrats came into power.
Funny how the D-word is conspicuously absent.
This is why knowing history is so important - then their attempted manipulation becomes obvious.
