      This is a highly persistent myth, even though arming slaves offended the CSA so much they voted near-unanimously against it when they were about to lose The Union's "colored regiments" were so offensive to them they gave no quarter to ALL Union soldiers in battles they were inhttps://twitter.com/MarkSpatny/status/1274017918339002370 …

      Replying to @GailSimone
      My high school history teacher insisted, emphatically, despite any evidence I brought to the contrary, that 1/3 of the combat soldiers fighting FOR THE CONFEDERACY were African-Americans who supported seceding from the Union. It boggles the mind. I had to switch classes.

      If you've seen the movie Glory They all die without exception at the end In a gross violation of the normal procedure in civilized warfare they executed everyone involved with the 54th en masse, even the white commissioned officers

      Putting a gun in the hands of a Black man and telling him to go use it to kill white men was a violation of the South's most sacred taboo, the law on which their whole society was founded A Black soldier in a uniform was spitting in their collective face

      That's why Frederick Douglass was so in favor of the colored regiments, even though the Union Army was still a massively racist and abusive institution toward Black men In his view the basic logic of Black military service made abolition inevitable

      This is the whole thing with why it's sinister to ban, say, trans people from the military, even if you think joining thy military is an awful idea and that what the military is used for is mostly imperial aggression

          When a society bans a whole class of people from the military what that society is saying is it fears that class of people ever gaining the power to kill It prefers that other classes of people have that power over them

          Hence one of the first steps to removing Jewish personhood in Nazi Germany was Hitler banning Jews from the military (Some heavy irony there, since it was a Jewish officer who had recommended Hitler for the Iron Cross in WWI)
