When Republicans controlled the Presidency and Congress we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the end of the Civil War.
I tried to get the nation to celebrate the 100th and 150th anniversary of the Civil War and the 14th Amendment but nothing happened because Democrats controlled both the Presidency and Congress. Sorry folks I contacted Black leaders (many of whom I knew personally) and the D.C. government; no response.
Its a fact.
