Just Another Example of How America Hides the Truth

I really liked this movie because it showed how racist those yankees in Maryland are. Dr. Thomas receieved more racism in Maryland than he did in Tennessee. Which is quite evident in the movie where you hear a man say, "He couldn't have done that surgery without that n****r.". It's very refreshing to have an accurate portrayal of the way life was back then than to have it re-written like the rest of history to make northern people look like some great emancipators. When actually they are a lot more racist than they let on up north... past and present. It's a very sore spot to people like me who hear the hill billy and racist sterotype on Jay Leno and movies when I actually know more about racism and the Civil War than most yankees do. They don't teach yankee kids diddly about the Civil War but southern kids are taught very much about it. Then in some history books (written by yankees) they try to brain-wash children into being ashamed of being southern especially if you're white. They make you think that you're the scum of the earth and are white trash. But really southern people have a lot more class than yankees. We don't sleep with everyone we see like yankees do. We actually hang out with the black people we go to school and work with. Unlike yankees who would work beside a black person in a factory and never utter a word to them. I know this because a person from Illinois told me this is the way it is up there. Remember the Civil War had nothing to do with freeing black people. Most of the confederate soldiers were poor and of course didn't own slaves at all. So obviously it's not about slavery. Some people like to make us think that it was about slavery but it wasn't. I even remember a black friend of mine saying, "The Civil War was just about politics" in history class. Even though text books would try to tell him differently. I read a very interesting book called "The Real Lincoln". Look up "The Real Lincoln" and you'll find very interesting facts about Linclon and the Civil War. During the Civil War the yankees blamed the war on black people and were lynching and murdering black people left and right. Many black people moved up north looking for jobs after the Civil War and were treated worse than Irish people were back then. They did not find the relief of racism they were looking for back then. Go ahead and tell me I'm full of it. I saw this information at an exhibit at the Smithsonian Museum of American History and when the museum opens back up after construction you can see it for yourself!
