Re read historical accounts not middle school books on the subject.
When I was a kid we celebrated Confederate Memorial Day.
It had nothing to do with slavery etc. I'm sure to some it did.
We didn't have any minorities in the county though except one.
Just about every one was descended from Mama's Ancestors or his kin.
Even though every one was a minority or really the majority, in the
county, no one talked about being "Indian." They couldn't own property
until 1928. The same year Alabama passed a Law making it illegal to
"kill an Indian."
Got or had many friends of several races. I even tolerate Englishmen. :)
