Did you know the Woodrow Wilson was responsible for the Official segregation of the Federal Government? PROGRESSIVE Democrat.

“Wilson wrote that Reconstruction placed southern white men under “the intolerable burden of governments sustained by the votes of ignorant negroes,” and that those white men responded by forming the Ku Klux Klan. He described the Klan as “an ‘Invisible Empire of the South,’ bound together in loose organization to protect the southern country from some of the ugliest hazards of a time of revolution.””

Wow! I realized Wilson was racist, but I didn’t realize how he and the Democrat Party set back progress for Black folks essentially about 60 years. It is important not to erase Wilson from history. How does the saying go? If we forget history we are bound to repeat it.
Thanks for a very informative article.
