@BloodiestMargie the confederacy was still willing to sacrifice the resources to give "a few hundred" expensive rifles and uniforms to "a few hundred" blacks though. If they were as racist as some claim then they would've sooner given the rifles and uniforms to their womenfolk. They valued blacks enough to fight side by side with white men, what does that tell you?
@BloodiestMargie that doesnt make sense, you claim there were no real black confederate soldiers, and then you say there were "only a few hundred". Are you saying the brave african soldiers who fought for the confederates don't matter? That is so racist and patronising towards african americans AND veterans.
@chiisanawani There were no real black soldiers in the Confederacy. Patrick Cleburne brought hte idea up as early as 1863, but they didn't actually start the policy until way too late in late 1864-1865. Like it would've mattered; only a few hundred signed up.
Well, of course there were black confederates. The slaves! You forgot to point out that those black men were slaves, and his property since before the war (btw it's Nathan, not Nathaniel).
And there were black Confederates. They were even in cavalry units Nathaniel Bedford Forrest, known for their ruthlessness and desperate raids at the rear of the enemy. General Forrest, the most aggressive commander CSA and implacable enemy of the northerners, and gave them a very flattering assessment: "These guys stayed with me until the end. People like them - better than the Confederacy had! "
