Furman University is racist!

Says here Richard Furman was a slave owner and supported it on moral grounds. When do those Paladins get woke and start their protests?

"As a young man he opposed slavery, but later he became a slave owner and came to support the practice on both economic and moral grounds.[2] In 1822 he published an "Exposition of the Views of the Baptists Relative to the Coloured Population of the United States", which set out the arguments that Southerners would use to defend slavery until the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution (1865) finally put an end to slavery in the United States."

Was he a domestic terrorist who lynched black people and took up arms against black people who dared exercise the few rights they did have at the time? No?

It's almost as if you're purposely misconstruing the opposition's argument to make a point that's entirely disingenuous.

Also, WRONG BOARD MORAN.

Well his name says it all. Doesn't care what anyone has to say that doesn't support his narrative.
