Happy June 19th, the day that Democrats in Texas were finally forced to free their slaves. Yes, the Republicans - the party begun to oppose slavery - accomplished the mission only a decade after the party's founding. The Democrats spent the next century trying to prevent blacks from equality. Not until LBJ did the Democrats change tactics and ''embrace" equality while simultaneously accusing Republicans of doing all the things they had done for a century. Today, you will find many ill-educated people who think Jim Crow and segregation were Republican policies and Lincoln was a Democrat. This miseducation is not accidental.
Juneteenth, brought to you by the Republican Party.
