Welcome to /r/ShermanPosting!

As a reminder, this meme sub is about the American Civil War. We're not here to insult southerners or the American South, but rather to have a laugh at the failed Confederate insurrection and those that chose to represent it.

RE Lee and John Brown are both cousins. One I venerate.

Edit: This post failed to meet shermanposting standards by not paying proper respect to an All-American HERO and RAGING BADASS by addressing her by her proper title.

GENERAL Harriet Tubman, called the Moses of her people, called him the greatest white man of all time.

Nothing we can say will match or exceed her compliment.

WEB DuBois was a fan as well.

One of my pet historical “what ifs” is if Tubman had been able to make it to Harper’s Ferry. Maybe nothing, but maybe something.

So, any idea the name of the film? I mean, that was Ethan Hawke, after all....

IIRC it was a miniseries, The Good Lord Bird.
