Black America, why blame white Republicans?
For the sins of white democrats?
When has a Republican ever tried to keep you bound under tyranny?

Umm, you're audience needs a history refresher..... it was a white Republican Party under Lincoln who supported the abolitionist movement. The party transformed into it's present elitist incarnation following the racist Woodrow Wilson administration (Republican to the core). Some say it was during Teddy Roosevelt's term because he was an imperialist, but I disagree. He was a Progressive.
Historically, both political parties can be accused of legislating tyrannical laws or policies. In sum, it's not the party, although it's a useful banner, it resides in the native biases of people and the politicians who manipulate them. It changes constantly over time.
