#1 Slaving. Muslim hobby well before the white Europeans even knew of the Americas.

BTW, part of the 'evil' American colonial experience was ending that hobby of the Muslim Moros in southern Philippines a hundred years ago. Like racism, it's only 'evil' when whites do it.

#2 General Sherman's march to the see resulted in burning of thousands of farms and plantations. This famous government solution resulted in a huge camp following and eventual migration to the North of former slaves. No detailed search required for the simple irony found here.

#3 You mean to the "sea."

I highly doubt William Tecumseh and his military solution would have made it to the Vatican.

#5 Dunno. Been a long time since US Army leadership was merely given an objective, and how it was done was left up to them.

Civilian or Government oversight of Tier 1 and 2 SOF is particularly onerous. I recall limp wristed Assistant Secretaries of Defense and congressional staffers taking great personal pride in crushing the nuts of senior military leaders. The creation of ASDSOLIC at the five sided nut was supposed to offer an info/liaison conduit for these vermin. Not sure how it has progress however.

#7 To add: there was some migration of blacks to the North after the Civil War, but it really began about the time of the industrialization of the Midwest, particularly the auto industry.

FWIW, quite a few migrated West as well. Not every cowboy was Gene Autry.
