I already covered this

Black U.S. citizens existed in 1862, primarily as free Black people in Northern states, despite the 1857 Dred Scott decision ruling against their citizenship. In November 1862, Attorney General Edward Bates officially recognized the citizenship of free Black people, and the Union began enlisting Black soldiers following the Militia Act of 1862. 

 

 

Typical lib.  You mentioned Dred Scott hours ago.  He’s doing the internet message board version of “listening to reply, not listening to understand”

Good lord, is history education in the USA really this crappy? 

Apparently, because there are a lot of morons claiming this is stolen land. 

Glad to see you've finally come around.

It’s black history month. Take some time to look this up and see what really happened. About 1.6 million white families got land from this act and only a few thousand black families did.

Here’s a very brief overview if you just want to scratch the surface on this.

What percentage of American families were black at that time?

Now do the Platt Amendment either from information you remember from high school history or from google which you pretend not to consult as you pretend you knew the information all along.

Good topic, guys.  I am gald that in the end we've all agreed:

This land isnt "stolen"

Hollywood is full of hypocrites

Billie Eillish is neither pretty nor ugly, but does have a huge set of fun bags, which helps.

You can lookup the 1870 census online

So can you.

So, tell me, do you think the land rights distribution was equitable based on the racial demographics at the time? 

If not, why so?

Here are the numbers. Over 4 million slaves were freed. And in the end only 6000 of them were able to get successful homestead act claims. Compared to 33 million white people in the U.S. at that time who got 1.6 million successful claims. 13% of the population and less than 1% of the successful claims.

I think the below is a paper worth reading for the why. If I had to put it in a few words: racism at the time and the failure of Reconstruction.

Sorry. Found this thread late. After reading the last 3 pages it’s obvious dogcows got curb stomped.

Wait, so they were 13% of the population way back then and they're still 13% of the population now? 

How can that be? 

ETA: Also, how many of those 4M freed slaves applied for land grants compared to the 33M whites?

And they remain 13 pct. Maybe if they weren’t slaughtering each other and there wasn’t abortion clinics all over the place their numbers would have grown. They should have. Nice job keeping those numbers down liberals.

Yeah, I didn't know who Elliish is nor that I should give a fock, or I'd have been here sooner.

 I do support turning over California to the control of indigenous tribes, cancelling the US citizenship of the people who live there, and expanding a border wall is worth pursuing. First, I'd allow for the non-retarded counties of western and northern California to decide if they want to secede from the state first or not.
