If you want to create a less perfect union, conjure that which splintered any attempt to create a more perfect union with true liberty and equality, or natural law. Conjure the candyman if you want bloodshed and delusion, and a less perfect union. Recognizing Constitution Day, there is no doubt that the history of the U.S. is filled with slavery, bigotry, racism, lynching (involving whites too), Klan activity, etc., though the reduction of complex and incomparable history to modern times is ignorant and misleading. Slavery and plantations have been replaced with welfare and the projects, while bigotry and racism have been redefined by some who act as protectors of ethnic or racial groups. Klan activity has been replaced with many social justice movements that like the Klan attack all who disagree. Despite the horrors of history, found all around the world from ancient to modern day, the foundation of a more perfect union was an attempt to compromise with ideas opposed to confirming all men are equal upon birth. This is why some were opposed not only to the Constitution, but engaged in a Civil War, and why many poor Confederates fled the military. It's why the Republican party placed the south under Martial Law after the war, forced Confederates out of power, and why they enacted the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, one of which was founded on the original Civil Rights Act of the 1860s. But war and legislation, along with emancipation proclamations, are not enough to stop the tide of economic and biased belief. Attempting to conjure the past for power in the present is the equivalent of summoning the dead for political purposes - an act of black magic and modern historical atrocity.
