“Attention to all blacks who plan to vote for Trump,” the sign outside New Era Baptist Church reads, “you are an ignorant stupid negro.” The other side says, “Warning African Americans: A vote for Trump will put Blacks back to picking cotton.”
No one is saying black people switched any thing. We are talking about how the Democrats were confederate supporters during the civil war and immediately after, and then there was a switch where the Republicans became the party of confederate supporters. Which is why it’s republicans now who are flying the racist and traitorous confederate flags now, and no longer the democrats.
They’re a tiny minority within the GOP, and I hate their actions as much as you do.
Lol Mississippi is still flying the Confederate flag at their capitol. “Just a tiny minority!” Where have you been the past 2 decades, defending flying the Confederate flag as some kind of “southern pride” thing? And weren’t you just arguing that the Democrats are the party of the KKK? Which, of course, is not true, but it didn’t seem you care much about something being a “tiny minority” then.
