Bruce Levine demolishes myth of Black Confederate soldiers in the "Washington Post"

Bruce Levine, demolishes the myth of Black Confederate soldiers in an article in the Washington Post and you can read it at this link:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/local-opinions/2010/10/the_myth_of_the_black_confeder.html

It will be in the print version of the Post tomorrow, Sunday, 10/30/10.

Bruce Levine is the author of "Confederate Emancipation: Southern Plans to Free and Arm Slaves During the Civil War," pub. Oxford University Press. It is an excellent book.

This is the link to it at Amazon.com:

The Sons of Confederate Veterans had a book review by Cassie A. Barrow criticizing the book in the Confederate Veteran, Sept./Oct. 2006, page 46. I sent a copy to Bruce Levine who was greatly amused by it.
