That is because it is a movie with the goal of edutainment, not education. It'd be even more depressing if it was realistic.

Glory got the point across about African American soldiers, they worked just as hard (if not harder) than their Caucasian counterparts but still got treated like crap.

That scene where the SgtMaj got told off by a white Corporal? That happened very, very often.

Not in the southern army! They got equal pay and was placed amongst regular soldiers.

They were still sort of slaves though, who fought for vague promises of freedom. Anyone sane amongst them deserted to the North when the opportunity arose.

Anyways, we're getting off topic now here. Is there any sort of information you can breadcrumb this thread Hinkel?

It wasn't a war over slavey. It was for state rights and against the tyrant north! 

Please love the south more people. We need more regiments and recruits :-(

The idea of the war being about freeing people is complete bull, free them to put them into being treated like shit for another century.  :P

By the way.

You can get banned from NA1 by saying "blacks"?
In theory we could do huge player numbers far over 500 players per server...  As such we will surely keep our promise to deliver you the 500 players per server.

We will probably go (far) over it, but that's for later.

Nope, It was about slavery. The CSA was full of ignorant and hateful people. There are no shades of grey to this sort of matter. Any state that supports and uses slavery is wrong.

Don't fool yourself people with whatever biased nonsense you've read else where. If you disagree with my view, feel free to make a thread about it in the History section as that as what it is for and take the discussion there.

And yes, people get banned for that term as it objectifies black people into an abbreviation. It is a bad word. Now back on topic talking about the video game mod instead of 200 year old North American history.
