The speech below is just one example of the Christian attitude of General Forrest.
On July 5, 1875, Nathan Bedford Forrest delivered this speech:
America needs more Americans like General Nathan Bedford Forrest in order for our great nation to have true racial equality.

When you consider it was 1875, and he was encouraging Negroes to get jobs alongside white folk, that's quite a statement. After all, this is even before Negroes were declared fully human!
I had no idea Forrest was such a "progressive".
Why is it all the black folk hate him and call him a bigot?
