                                    White Union soldiers who died fighting to free the slaves

 

Reader Peter Murphy adds another missing link to the New York Times’ distorted view of American history. He writes: “What also gets overlooked by the race baiters and 1619ers is that hundreds of thousands of white union soldiers died in a war that freed blacks from slavery. 

“Yet nearly 160 years later, and 55 years after the Civil Rights and Voting Rights acts (and 44 years of Joe Biden in public office), they tell us America remains a nation with systemic racism. This claim is preposterous, divisive and insulting.”
