Segregation was the brain child of the 1920's Progressive movement.
The US Army was desegregated at the turn of the Century. Men fought side by side as men, not color.
Along comes very racist Woodrow Wilson and the Progressive movement, and he brought segregation to the Army and encouraged it in the private sector. Not unlike the German thinking of a better race. There was some weird thinking at the turn of the century. Social Elitist Governments were striving worldwide, to form the perfect human. If you were different from their view of the perfect human, you were eliminated. Yes, here in the USA, you were eliminated.
The Democrat party of the late 1800's, well into the 1970's, is the party of the KKK.
When did that all seem like it was just a dream. Were Americans taught to forget about the racist Progressive agenda?
This nonsense has gone far enough. Educate yourself on how the parties have changed over the years. Particularly, look up "The Southern Strategy". The continued lies aligning the modern-day GOP with Lincoln and MLK are utterly dishonest and I am pretty sickened that it is a tactic still in use.
Segregation has been going on since the 1800's; mainly in the conservative south. The Democratic party was conservative at the time they were associated with racists. The 'Democrat Party' doesn't exist outside of conservative imaginations. Wilson was no more racist than the average white person of his day. You have a very loose grip on reality.
I think FDR turned the Democrats into liberals with the inception of social welfare via the New Deal. He turned the party into the party of the working man.
Only during that time they were not working.
