Re: Civil War Graves in Brooklyn Cemetery
You're right, Pam. The other day on the History Channel I caught part of an exposition about the Emancipation Proclamation. Of course, the story never mentioned it only applied to those slaves in territory the North did not control, nor that most of the "freed" slaves did not hear of it until the war was over. The P.C. version was given; that ALL the slaves were freed by the EP. Stan
