  1. Keep in mind everyone that even a freed slave was absolutely not allowed to carry a firearm and much less into battle. In fact there were laws for both confederate and union armies against black soldiers.

  2. fun facts: the Civil War was about money and control, not slavery. The federal government wanted the southern states to help pay debt owed to foreign countries, even though the South got little to no benefit from it.
    Also the south was against further centralization of control via larger federal government – they wanted more independence for the individual states.
    The slavery issue didn't become a thing until the middle of the war.
    Lincoln didn't care about slavery either way and it's documented in a letter he wrote which is now historical record.

  3. Let me tell you, if you weren’t taught in history class, the wealthy elites class didn’t give two shits about color. Among them there were many shades. Matter a fact the “white” class was created to distinguish the haves and have nots. The elites, during that time, never identified as white, whites could not vote nor own land.

  4. One of my favorites. My dad was a history buff and teacher. He introduced this movie to me when I was younger. I did not understand how great it was at that time. When my daughter and son get a little older, we will watch it together.

  5. Andre Braugher… I had this running on the side, not paying much attention, but the moment he smiled, I recognized that smile instantly.
    What an amazing ensemble cast. All fantastic and accomplished actors.
    Rest in Peace Andre.
