He certainly has my admiration and respect. The Post Civil War continuation of “social slavery” in the form of hegemony, subjugation, discrimination, and undeserved hatred led us largely to the situation we have today. If that had happened to me or my family, I would have the same bitterness and sensitivities. There HAS been tremendous change, but one of the worst “festering sores” that remains today is the plight taking place in the inner cities, where a large block of people have been allowed to “rot” in institutionalized societal cesspools of passive “progressive” political control and “free” handouts that take away dignity and initiative. Like animals trapped in a zoo, an entire generation has been trapped in a never-ending cycle of handouts - just enough to maintain the poverty and need - In exchange for large “voting blocks” - so they can vote en masse for their keepers. What a travesty and a scam. This political system is fine-tuned to operate without directly pointing blame on their own policies and hidden manipulations. Blame is deflected away to other false flags. IMHO.

I read an interesting book. The seperation of blacks and whites didn’t really hit its stride until late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Had more to do with political power. Augusta Georgia had an upper class area of town with many mixed marriages. The unions produced world class opera singers, powerful preachers and others of note. The need to divide for whites to retain power is what fueled the Klan etc.
