Are there any contemporary accounts of black union troops looting and raping?
Yes, and former slaves did alot of it too, but it was all memory holed.
>>16894060>Respect someone’s lived experience chud!>Nooooooo!! Not like that!!!Funny how the standards for historical authenticity change when it’s white southerners giving their account of what happened during reconstruction and suddenly the Lost Cause becomes a “myth”
>declare the entirety of Georgia partisans>Union troops carry crowbars to loot as they traverse the south>Farmers are executed if they allowed confederates to take some of their produce, even if it was against their will >All plantations in the unions path were looted and then burned to the ground, cotton ready for harvest burned
>All plantations in the unions path were looted and then burned to the ground, cotton ready for harvest burnedI see nothing wrong with this.
>>16894190Well it wasn't just the plantations. For instance one of the pieces of evidence used for the Holocaust was the German's "hunger plan" where there Germans would raid Russia for the food they would need to continue the war. Sherman also has his own "hunger plan" where he set off with no plans to establish supply lines and loot burn and raid across the south to feed his troops, often targeting innocent civilians hoping to ride out the war
Do you think any of those Union boys ever found an intact Buck Breaker 3000, fired up the steam engine on her and has his way with ol' massa?
