I am much pleased with how this thread is being represented and presented, its hard to find fault when matter and manner are delightful. Thank you.
Now we are fast covering the facts, soon we shall torment with many sentiments to which we are already no strangers. In your humble opinions, if many slaves, and free African Americans had been passed and permitted service with the continentals, how much of an impact would it have made? Do you think they would have been divided within regiments? Should they have been given a worthy role or just fodder? (understanding of course congress was short on funds this is speculation ) but permit me to say, the speculation for debate here may thus have put an abrupt halt to the war. That said there may have been much resentment within continentals own ranks given this right. How important really was the fight, could the southern whites respect ? all in the name of Liberty.
