----KKK is alive and well in the north, couple years ago there was a
demonstration, in Racine..heck that was broadcasted nationally don't you remember
? I have newspaper accounts telling about their meetings and such in Wisconsin,
and Illinois. You want me to get them out ?

> SHE and her family were NOT content, but knew what they had to do to keep from

----Again, blacks were and are discriminated up north, we can not discount that as
being national...you got to remember when the slaves were freed there were no
allowances made for them.  The north was becoming industralized, there were no
unions and the black labor force, this new labor force was a threat to those up
here.  Besides that many of our soldiers had died, for the preservation of the
Union, and the freeing of the slaves...there was bitterness that their loved ones
were gone, that communities disappeared due to this war.

----There were many laws enacted prohibiting them to move into certain
states....look at the demographics how many blacks live in the south compared to
the north.  Everyone of them supposedly had the opportunity to move up north, by
what you said, percentage wise how many did ?

-----You still see this black and whites working together peacefully,
respectfully...in the south.  There is a percentage that is always more noticeable
and vocal than the majority, and that is what one has to go by.

----The major slave holder in the South was a freed black man from La, do you want
name and details...can get them.

----Blacks had joined the Confederate Army and fought right along side the rest,
they got paid the same...up north the white soldier got $13 a month, and the black
got $10 a month
