While I agree that there were many Christians that are racist and many in the Democratic party went to church, this, however does not encompass conservatives. Example; most if not all progressive left support abortion but still call themselves Catholic or Christians. Ho do you square that anomaly? You don’t, it is effectively ignored by everyone of you dopes posting in here that the KKK and racism come from the right of our politics.
You want facts? Here’s some facts:
Until 1935, every black federal legislator was Republican, and it was Republicans who appointed the first black Air Force and Army four-star generals, established Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday as a national holiday, and named the first black national-security adviser, secretary of state, the research reveals. An estimated 3,446 blacks and 1,297 whites died at the end of KKK ropes from 1882 to 1964.
The right-wing believes his fellow human beings’ freedom of action is a benefit that accrues to all. The left-wing believes your freedom to conduct your life as you see fit is a threat that must be “controlled” for the “common good” and government must regulate everything to prevent this.
You would have to believe the entire civil war was the opposite of what it was, even though we have history books and government documents to support the truth, you would rather take the word from congenital liars of your party than actually learn the truth. The Conservative Republicans are the party of Lincoln – how your kind has bastardized our entire history in order to interlope yourselves as the good guys in all this – I must say – Is impressive, but still a lie.
The connection with democrats and the KKK with their racism and hate go way back to the 1800’s. Just read the history of their voting records and you will see it has always been the Democrats who were the racists. Republicans often led the efforts to pass federal anti-lynching laws and their platforms consistently called for a ban on lynching. Democrats successfully blocked those bills and their platforms never did condemn lynchings. In 1866 comments from Indiana Republican Gov. Oliver Morton condemning Democrats for their racism. It was well known for over 100 years who the racists were and they were on the left from the democrat party. The first grand wizard of the KKK, Nathan Bedford Forrest – Confederate Army General - was honored at the 1868 Democratic National Convention, no Democrats voted for the 14th Amendment to grant citizenship to former slaves and, to this day, the party website ignores those decades of racism.
Historical documents are unequivocal that the Klan was established by Democrats and that the Klan played a prominent role in the Democratic Party, a 13-volume set of congressional investigations from 1872 conclusively and irrefutably documents that fact.
In the 1920’s it was at its peak and completely supported by the Democrat party. 300K of them marched on Washington – really no different than the protests and marches of today. As recently as 1960, Mississippi Democratic Gov. Hugh White had requested Christian evangelist Billy Graham (conservative) segregate his crusades, something Graham refused to do. When South Carolina Democratic Gov. George Timmerman learned Billy Graham had invited African Americans to a Reformation Rally at the state Capitol, he promptly denied use of the facilities to the evangelist.
The ONLY way this was going to change is to confuse the masses with lies and all you fools took it hook, line and sinker. Why do you think all the democrats say one thing to get votes but what happens is either nothing or the opposite of what they promised the black communities? Every single big city ran by several layers of democrats has all the blacks living in slums and prisons – because they CARE? Seriously, even Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. voted Republican because he knew who the real racists are. The Democrat party “plantation” is the dependence class, with their lies democrats managed to garner a minority voter turnout; of gullible fools like you and the black community. The Democrat party can reliably count on minority votes, because they have been telling minorities for the past 45 years that only Democrats “truly care”, however this is a hallow statement. Black adults living at or below the poverty level grew from 19.8% back in 2007, to 23% by the end of 2010. During 2005 the median income of blacks under Bush and his majorities in the House and Senate was $12,124. By 2009, after only three years of Democrat party majorities in both houses and Obama’s first year in office that number plummeted by 53% to $5,677. In June 2008, unemployment for them slid from 58.6 % to 52.8% by August 2012 – again under Obama – a supposed black man with all that hope and change the blacks thought they would get. Fewer than 50% of young black males had full-time employment. But today, well, Trump has changed that and truly gave them hope. Your party, your idea of what you think it is, is all distorted.
What exactly has the democratic party done for the black community – you surely must wonder this? Try to find a catalogue of policies by the left that have supported their rhetoric. Back in 2010, the DNC website read “Democrats are unwavering in our support of equal opportunity for all Americans. That’s why we’ve worked to pass every one of our nation’s Civil Rights laws.” Those words have since been removed from the site. Did the Democrat party change it when too many people realized that they are still, even after all these years, as racist as they have ever been?
The left now enslaves blacks into social handouts to hold them down by the insidious racism of diminished expectations, all the while campaigning that they were “helping” them. After all of these “progressive” years, the Democrat party is still just as racist as it has ever been, it has simply become more sophisticated in how it exercises that racism. It’s amazing to me that this worked so well, but it did and their propaganda has obviously worked as well on you. They no longer hate them, they used them to effectuate their power and they’ve done it with perfect precision of propaganda that even Joseph Goebbels would be proud.
Here are recent historical glaring facts you insist on ignoring, or maybe you are just stupid.
May 23, 2003, Republican Senator Sam Brownback (R-KS) introduced a bill establishing the National Museum of African American History & Culture.

The Dixiecrats did not migrate to become Republicans. The Republicans destroyed the Dixiecrats using Federally supported de-segregation, the very thing the Dixiecrats most opposed.
