It is mass-scalle illegal immigration. It is when American citizens and immigrants together collaborate against white Americans. It is when DEI programs and approaches which deliberately keep white Americans, including those with especially fair skin and blue eyes in combination with traditional American culture, often referred to by Hispanics or Latinos as Anglos )not meant negatively in this context), from the workforce, and when they give reduced, fake, dishonest or otherwise lesser services to whites from jobs they occupy in the U.S. It is when they turf a job location.

Another side of the family (Hyatts) also appear to have fought in the American Revolution for the Americans of Maryland. The Butler side’s working for the Revolution seems already proven through Daughters of American Rev.olution records. Early American ancestors being linked to slavery seems possible, not only with the Butlers, but also with the Wynns in Iuka, Mississippi. I am focusing more on this later in life. When I realized the Butlers had a southern connection that went way back in this country’s history, I started seeing a repeated pattern of southern ties in both of my parents’ sides of the family Aside from the modern era’s stereotypes of descendants of slaveholders (I don’t know if my South Carolina ancestors actually were slaveholders, I consider it likely or possible, but feel extended relatives were likely so), there are also Cherokee connections that I want to be studied in more depth. The Butlers in the South might have fought against (and at times with) the Cherokees. The later Butlers helped take them to Oklahoma Indian Country and manage them there on reservations it seems. Hyatts on my grandmother’s side (father’s mothers father)were part Cherokee. My grandmother’s Hyatt father was from Louisiana, another southern state, and my grandmother exhibited black racist language in the home and anger over the Confederate side losing. My father has exhibted a flash of language going back to youth of pro-Confederate language, his father and grandfather were pro-Confederate in his youth, and his grandfather fought for the Conf. Army (and was injured several times) in the CIvil War. these southern connections did not show up in my childhood with certainty until I started doing research and asking questions and listening better to my father. Most of the grandparents with more information are gone. Am I a racist because I have southern roots? NO. I always took the Union style of approach to slavery and racism most of my life. It was the far left DEI thing that shifted me to a selfp-protective position, along with some personal experiences with various minorities over the years. To use the argument that I likely had slave-owing families with a southern racist background is not an accurate description of my proclivities. I think slavery is and was terrible. It’s a stink on any family line and also American history. It is degrading for both the slaves and the slaveholders. I have always sympathized with the slaves. I felt they needed to be freed, and still do. I do understand the many ways things were not fair for blacks even after Emancipation and being given the right to vote. I do understad the hypocrisy and double-sstandards. I am aware my great-uncle fought in the Army with Jim Crows still very much around. He mentions some of it in a letter or so. I also read about the divided off Tuskogee Aiermen. Blacks being put at the back of school buses, not allowed to go to white schools, etc. But I don’t agree with enless reparations and holding grudges against all whites today for these past istakes of some - not all - of our American ancestors or American people, if they were not our direct ancestors. The blame games and redirected focus needs to stop. The anger over racism and slavery, and being put in Reservations, etc. gives too many people self-permission to do terrible things over and over in the name of retribution and resistance or even rebellion. It encourages violence and vandalism, not pulling out of your own mess (because whites are to blame), etc., etc. People who get in that indset are living in constant negative dramas and excuses for bad behavior.

In March 1776, over three months before the signing of the Declaration of Independence, South Carolina became the second colony to draft a state constitution and elected a president as chief executive. In June 1776 one of the defining battles of the early war took place on the South Carolina coast when revolutionary forces under the command of William Moultrie (1730–1805) defeated a combined British naval and amphibious assault at the Battle of Sullivan’s Island. After renewed assaults, Charleston fell to British forces in 1780 and provided a base of operations to launch a “Southern Strategy” to bring southern states back into the empire after a series of stalemates in the north. This British strategy was foiled by sustained guerrilla campaigns led by partisans in the South Carolina Backcountry including Thomas Sumter (1734–1832) and Francis Marion (1732–1795). The personal papers of Moultrie, Sumter, and Marion held by the South Caroliniana Library are all part of this digital collection. South Carolina was represented politically on the national and international level by men like Henry Laurens (1724–1792). A native of Charleston and a merchant, planter, and slave trader, Laurens was one of the wealthiest men in the colonies when independence from Britain was declared. After becoming the President of the Provincial Congress and Council of Safety in 1775, he was the de facto chief executive of South Carolina before the adoption of the state constitution of 1776. He was then appointed Vice President of South Carolina, a post he held until being elected as a delegate to the Continental Congress in 1777. He would represent South Carolina in that body until October 1779, and as the body’s president from November 1777 to December 1778. He was appointed as a diplomat to Holland in October 1779 but was captured by a British warship on the Atlantic Ocean in September 1780 and imprisoned in the Tower of London from October 1780 to December 1781. After his release he was made a member of the commission (along with Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay) to negotiate a final peace with Britain to end the war. Though many of Laurens’s papers were published in the sixteen-volume Papers of Henry Laurens, this collection contains all his personal, political, and business papers held by the South Caroliniana Library–including as of yet unpublished material.
