WOODROW WILSON, ARCH-RACIST
I was unaware of this meeting between William Monroe Trotter and supporters with racistly rancid Woodrow Wilson . Neither man ranks among my favorites. Even so, I have long wondered whether the economic surges among black people in the South, especially, where they came to own 1/3 of its farmland in 1915, was the true reason for Wilson's subversive acts like: imposing a federal income tax, firing, not hiring, segregating black federal government workers, invading Haiti, letting the Klan walk down Pennsylvania Ave, watching "Birth of a Nation" in the White House, gleefully, entering WWI with American armed forces under oppressive white officers, the Federal Reserve System.
