Heres one for you.

The Revolution War and the Civil War was Fought for the same reason Slavery. The American Colonies were quite uncomfortable with the English Courts granting Freedom to Slaves in the early 1770s.

We are at the front door of going into the 1850s. But there are a few Blogs I have to do, to bring us up to the 1850s. Because onuce we get into the 1850s we are into 15 years of  Combat. So I am going to go back and look at what got us up to 1850.

And then we will look at  what  put slaves on the path to freedom.


As a 65yo Black man I am quite excited about this Blog. History is my passion. After November 26, 2012, I will start a talk  show on my 3 passions Health, History, and Aging.

Why I Started this Blog.

When I started this Blog I was mad, because I felt that my people knew nothing about there own History. However as I got into this Blog I found out that I knew  very little about my History. From 1505-1850 the Black Slave in America had know help and no where to turn. The white Slave owner had every part of America working for him, everyone depended on Slavery. the government at every level was making money off of Slavery. All through the 1830s, and 1840s cotton was King and the  Slave owners just got richer. After the 1844 elections Life for the Slave owner just got better. America became a one party courntry. The Whig party, stoped being a party. And the Democrats ran the courntry from 1844 until 1860. Well after the 1844 election the Slave owners were not happy  with the amount of money they were  making they wanted more. They were so sure of themslfs, and so  full of greeds.

Well this takes us up to 1850. This decade is the decade that Slavery falls apart.

After the 26 of November 2012 I will began my 30min Blog talk Radio talk show.

My topics  Will be History, and Health, and Aging.

The History of the Republican Party.

The party was formed in 1854 by disgrundle Democratics and Whigs who opposed Slavery. They were everyday people  who rejected their fellow man being oppressed. These anti Slavery activists believed  in       free soil, free speech, and free men, was the slogan of the day. The party opposed human enslavement. The party became a national party in 1856 when it norminated John C Freemont. 4 years later Abraham Lincoln election frmly put the Republican  party in control  from 1860-1932. During the civl war aganist the advice of his cabinet he sign the emancipation proclamation. that freed the Slave. The Republicans of the day passed the 13,14, and 15 amendment. Outlawing Slavery, guaranting equal protection under the law, securing the right to vote, for the freedmen and women. The Republican party also got the vote for women, in 1896.

In the 1850s the Democratic and Republican party Flip floped. The Democratics were pro-Slavery.

The Republican Party, the party of Lincoln. I think Lincoln would be shocked by his party in 2012.

1840 U.S Presidential Election.

MartinVan Buren running for reelection, aganist Willam Henry Harrison. In December 1840 during this election, if you were aganist Slavery you were considered radical, are just crazy. Slavery going into this election was a American insitution. It was supported at evey level of government.

Thank you America.

D-DAY.

Well Black Americans the 2012 election is upon us. Alot of Black men and women have died for you to have this right. PLEASE VOTE.

God bless you Mr President, and good luck.

America for All

Well Election day 2012, is just about upon us. We can see one thing that is still with us in 2012, and that is racism. This attitude has been with us since the very begnnig of Amerca. With the Election in 2008 of a Black President, racism has come roaing back. Before 2008 alot of Black Americans were trying to run away from our History. Well now the Hate and racism has come aground.Black Americans you do yourself and your children a diservice when you try to pretend that everyone loves you. Being the only Black face on a job or at an event do not make you look great, it makes you look like a fool. Stop trying to run from your History embrace it. Yes your fore Mothers and Fathers, were Slaves, and were bought, solded raped and killed and made to breed like animals. And Slave women were Slavemasters sex objects. And Slave women were made to wet nurse Masters Children, and force to neglect there own. Yes Black America our History is Brutal and painful,  but be determine never to not let anyone push us backwards. We are American, and we have the right to be. Our Black men has fought in every war America has ever been in. America was built on the backs of Black Slave men and Women.

I believe that this 2012 Election will set America on the path for real change. Hate and Racism will not rule America going forward. So Black America I say to you live right so you can see real change.

Please vote 11,6,2012.
