I am so fed up with people calling Conservatives & Republicans "racists". Before you use this word again, perhaps you should read the following.....you may find that you are not as "woke" as you think you are......
History of The Republican Party
1850's In Congress, a small group of Whigs and Democrats who knew slavery was wrong came together and created the Republican Party and within a decade nominated and elected the first Republican President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln.
17 Jul 1862 The Republican "Confiscation Act of 1862" passed Congress. It stated that any Confederate official, military or civilian, who did not surrender within 60 days of the act's passage would have their slaves freed in criminal proceedings. The Democrat Party continued to support Slavery.
1 Jan 1863 The "Emancipation Proclamation" issued by President Lincoln a year earlier takes effect, it changed the federal legal status of more than 3 million enslaved people in the designated areas of the South from "slave" to "free". It had the practical effect that as soon as a slave escaped the control of the Confederate government, by running away or through advances of federal troops, the slave became legally free. The Democrat Party continued to support Slavery.
15 Jun 1864 Republicans in Congress vote for equal pay for African-American troops serving in the U.S. Army.
28 Jun 1864 A Republican majority in Congress repeals the "Fugitive Slave Act of 1793" (this is the law that allowed the government to go after runaway slaves and return them to their owners). The Democrat Party continued to support Slavery.
31 Jan 1865 The Thirteenth Amendment banning slavery passed the US House with unanimous Republican support and intense Democratic opposition. Republican support, 100 percent. Democratic party support, 23 percent. 87% of the Democrat Party refused to vote yes on the Amendment to ban slavery.
22 Nov 1865 Republicans denounce the Democrat legislature of Mississippi for enacting "black codes", which institutionalized racial discrimination.
1865 The Ku Klux Klan "KKK" launches as a, "terrorist arm", of the Democrat party. The KKK was founded in Tennessee, in 1866, as a social club. It then spread into just about every state in the South and eventually into the North in various locations. According to Dr. Eric Foner, professor of history at Columbia University: �In effect, the Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic party, the planter class, and all those who desired the restoration of white supremacy. It aimed to destroy the Republican party�s infrastructure, undermine the Reconstruction state, reestablish control of the black labor force, and restore racial subordination in every aspect of Southern life.�
9 Apr 1866 Republican Party passes the Civil Rights Act of 1866 to protect the rights of African Americans, especially newly freed slaves. The Act was Vetoed twice by Democrat President Andrew Johnson, but a 2/3 Republican majority in each house overcame the veto and the bill became law. The Democrat Party continued their opposition to rights for Black Americans.
Feb 1867 A Republican led Congress passes the 15th Amendment "Section 1: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." Despite Democrat opposition, the Republican party secured ratification victories throughout 1869. But, the elation over this victory was short-lived. While Republicans amassed loyal black voters in the North, the South was a different story altogether. The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) unleashed a reign of terror against black men who tried to vote or who had voted, by burning homes, churches and schools, and in some cases by resorting to murder.
1870 to 1930 Democrats used fraud, lynching, whippings, mutilation, murder and intimidation in order to suppress the black population. In addition to that, "Black Codes" and "Jim Crow" laws, which legalized racial discrimination and denied blacks equal rights, were enforced. Gun control measures were also taken in order to disarm the black population.
1 Mar 1875 The Civil Rights Act of 1875 was a United States federal law enacted during the Reconstruction Era to guarantee African Americans equal treatment in public accommodations, public transportation, and to prohibit exclusion from jury service. The bill was passed by the 43rd United States Congress and signed into law by Republican President Ulysses S. Grant. The drafting of the bill was performed early in 1870 by Senator Charles Sumner, a dominant Radical Republican in the Senate, with the assistance of John Mercer Langston, a prominent African American who established the law department at Howard University
1917-1920 Prior to the passage and ratification of the 19th Amendment, in 1917 the first woman was elected to Congress. Rep. Jeannette Rankin (R-MT) was sworn in on June 4, 1919. Not long after that, on June 2, 1924, the Republican-controlled 68th Congress and President Calvin Coolidge granted citizenship to Native Americans with the Indian Citizenship Act. Then, in 1928 Sen. Octaviano Larrazolo (R-NM) was sworn in as the first Hispanic U.S. Senator.
17 May 1954 The legendary "Brown v. Board of Education" ruling struck down racial segregation in public schools. The majority decision was written by Chief Justice Earl Warren who was a former Republican governor of California.
1957 President Eisenhower, who appointed Justice Warren, sent Congress a proposal for civil rights legislation. The end result was the Civil Rights Act of 1957 which established the Civil Rights Section of the Justice Department and enabled federal prosecutors to obtain court injunctions against interference with the right to vote. It also established the Civil Rights Commission which was given the authority to investigate discriminatory conditions and recommend corrective measures. In the end, however, the final act was weakened by Congress due to lack of support from Democrats. President Eisenhower was also responsible for sending U.S. troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools.
21 Aug 1959 The Republican party produced the first Asian-American U.S. Senator, Hiram Fong (R-HI)
10 Jun 1964 The Senate passed key civil rights legislation--The 1964 Civil Rights Act in which the Republican leader, Everett Dirksen (R-IL), defeated a Democrat filibuster. According to Michael Zak, in his book, Back to Basics for the Republican Party:
�On this day in 1964, Everett Dirksen (R-IL), the Republican Leader in the U.S. Senate, condemned the Democrats� 57-day filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Leading the Democrats in their opposition to civil rights for African-Americans was Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV). Byrd, who got into politics as a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan, spoke against the bill for fourteen straight hours. Democrats still call Robert Byrd 'the conscience of the Senate.'�
In the final Senate vote on the Act, it received 82 percent of the Republican vote and was opposed by 69 percent of Democrats.
25 Sep 1981 Republican President Ronald Reagan appointed the first woman, Sandra Day O'Connor, to the Supreme Court.
to present Republicans have always sought to create an environment in which anyone who persevered could achieve the American dream. GOP-driven welfare reform, for example, is responsible for helping scores of people move forward towards self-sufficiency. Moreover, charter schools have been significantly effective in rescuing poor urban children from failing public schools and providing them with the tools to succeed in life. Consistently embracing a law and order platform, the GOP has always fought gun control measures which disarm the law-abiding citizens. In many high crime areas minorities are victimized and often unable to defend themselves because of strict gun laws which have little impact on criminals. The GOP supports measures which reduce the amount of gun violence by empowering the law-abiding citizen. The Republican party has historically also fought illegal immigration and one reason for that is because illegal workers steal jobs from black and Hispanic laborers who are in this country legally.
