re: #505 HappyWarrior

I always felt it was a tragedy taht the poor white farmers of the South didn’t realize their common ground with the Blacks and team up. There were small movements like that but they never lasted too long. The Readjuster movement here in Va history is something we never learn about in school.

Because the trick of the ruling classes is to play the poorer classes off against each other. Works like a charm: look at what England did with its Irish and Ulster Protestants…
