Actually I know of two or three black men still picking cotton.....Their own
I knew a guy when I was a kid who picked his own cotton too. I used to try and help but I kept hurting my fingers and hands. We's wasn't sing'n no songs while's we was pick'n, tho.
Oh yeah, we's all was white and the guy I was help'n was my grandfather and there was no black folk help'n neither and it was in Tennessee.
Indeed, but God is a man, therefore men are holy. It is right they (we) should be worshiped by the women we choose to satisfy our instinctual needs, clean our shelters, gather and prepare our sustenance.
I have read about instances where the Sons of Confederate Veterans have counter-acted against the "Conehead" KKK at their own rallies.
I would love to see evidence of this because all I've ever seen was people clam up.

Quote:
Several groups counterdemonstrated. Park Service spokeswoman Katy Lawhon said there were no major incidents; one man was cited for entering a restricted area carrying a rainbow flag.
Confederate re-enactors from Virginia protested the Klan's adoption of the Confederate battle flag as an emblem and its claim to be a continuance of the Confederate cause.
"These guys don't stand for anything I stand for," said Tim McCown of Jefferson, Md. "And it's time we disengage our flag from what they stand for."
Representatives of the national Sons of Confederate Veterans also came to protest the Klan's efforts to identify with the Confederacy.
I once knew an old Cajun who told me that any man who worked for another was a slave.
But that's not the definition of slavery. Slaves don't own their own labor.
When you work but someone else reaps all the profits of your labor, you're a slave. With slavery you get to sit around in the shade, let your slaves do all the work and you keep the money.
In that way, taxpayers are now the slaves. All the work is done by them, their labor is confiscated and redistributed to others who didn't work.
I also believe illegals are slaves because the companies that use their labor don't pay the going wage, often don't pay legal wages and they pocket the profits. I know of a guy who is here legally, a born citizen. He will accept work for $20 an hour and instead of doing any of the work, he has one of his illegals do it all - pays the illegal at the most $5 an hour. He has it made - he is getting $15 an hour, the employer thinks he's doing the honest thing, paying good wages and hiring people legally able to work. With just 4 illegals out there working, this guy makes a $60 an hour profit.
I've searched for this on the internet many times, yet cannot seem to find a political party, a fringe group, extremists, etc. who support the repeal of the 13th amendment.
Actually there is a group that endorses such a state of human affiars. It is disguised by circustance and language, but it is not really different in many regards.
They refer to themselves as Democrats.
you need to learn to spell, you mean Neocons, sure they have the token minority to make themselfs look like they don't want to take away rights, but it was democrats who pushed with little help form republicans the civil rights act and a democratic president who signed it. You need a history lesson scooby.
Dislike of the 14th Amendment. Christian Exodus calls the 14th Amendment to the Constitution "fraudulent" because the states of the southern confederacy were not allowed to vote on it. The amendment abolished slavery, made former slaves citizens and gave them the vote. Christian Exodus says "We hold that it is the right of the various States to nullify this Amendment and all laws and court rulings arising from it."

You are correct in one of your statements; it was a democrat, LBJ, who signed the Civil Rights Act, but thanks largely to the work of Martin Luther King Jr, a Republican.
It is well worth remembering these words; as he was signing...LB (frequently known as "Lyin' Boy", as well as Lyndon Baines), Johnson said:
"Once I sign this here Bill, we [democrats] will own the blacks forever!"
The sad fact of the matter is that he was, and still is, right about that.
