AFTER GETTYSBURG ...
Molten hell hailed from the pale, gray skies ominously hovering over Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, on July 1-3, 1863, where tens of thousands of exclusivity American white men: Union blue under General George Meade, Confederate gray under General Robert E. Lee, viciously fought, injured, and killed each other, totaling 51,000 white men who were dead, injured, missing.
White men having warred against each other to decide the national destiny, had as gallantly lost their lives in their original "white men's war", their purposefully , politically, lily-white "Civil War," that was being raged to decide the status of America's 4.5 millions of black people: slave or free? equal citizenship or no citizenship? To decide the integrity of the United States of America itself, united as one, or confederated by North/South divisions ? To the blacks, for whom the political white men's "Civil War" was then, and still is, the black people's "Freedom War," their sable arms decisively decided that war's outcome, after Gettysburg! That was when victorious black troops boldly marched through Richmond, Virginia, in triumph in April 1865, saluting Abe Lincoln!
