Learn American History. Many, many Blacks were Confederates and fought for the Confederacy. |

I am just amazed black people TODAY fly such flag proudly, I didnt know there were proud black confederates still, considering how history treated the confederation (and by this I mean, what in the actual fuck would motivate you to be a proud black condeferate today). I guess its like the "neonazi" movements in latin america. |

Its a historical flag. Did you know the Song, Dixie, The anthem of the Confederacy is about a black freedman wishing to be back on the Plantation of his birth. |

You couldn`t be further from the truth. Blacks had a much better life in the South than the North, pre civil war. There were many black men who attained great wealth and even had slaves of their own. The largest slave owner in Craven County, North Carolina was a black man, John Carruthers Stanly and was one of the largest in the state. His house still stands today.  |

“By 1860, so many Black women in Charleston had inherited or been given slaves and
other property by white men, and used their property to start successful businesses, that
they owned 70% of the Black owned slaves in the city.”[36]

According to the federal census of 1830, free blacks owned more than 10,000 slaves
in Louisiana, Maryland, South Carolina, and Virginia. The majority of black slave owners lived in
Louisiana and planted sugar cane

“The largest black slaveholder in the South, John Carruthers Stanly of North Carolina, faced
a number of problems in the 1820s in dealing with a slave labor force on his three
turpentine plantations in Craven County. With a total of 163 slaves, Stanly was a harsh,
profit-minded taskmaster, and his field hands would run away. Stanley dealt with this
through his two white overseers and with a spy network that included a few trusted
slaves. Brister, his slave barber in New Bern, was responsible for relaying to his owner
rumors of planned escapes …Nor did Stanly have any pangs of conscience about selling
children away from their parents or holding free blacks in bondage.”
“Free black slave owners who lived in urban areas – Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, Natchez, and
New Orleans – also faced difficulties with their slave property. Free mulatto barber William
Johnson of Natchez was not certain what had happened to his recently purchased slave,
Walker, when he disappeared in 1835. He had either been stolen or had run away to
Kentucky to rejoin his wife. When on 4 July 1833, authorities in Ascension Parish,
Louisiana, jailed the twelve- or fourteen-year-old black boy named Isaac taken off
the steamer Watchman, he admitted he was owned by a ‘free woman of color in
New Orleans named Jane’.”[38]

Their slaves were white right? |

Another Negro slave magnate in
Louisiana, with over 100 slaves, was Antoine Dubuclet, a sugar planter whose estate
was valued at (in 1860 dollars) $264,000 (3). That year, the mean wealth of southern
white men was $3,978 (4).

Is this the majority of the cases? Im pretty sure you know about more about the civil war than I do, but I find it a tad misleading that you say "Blacks had a much better life in the South than the North", maybe some blacks... |
