Comment on lyrics to go (part 7 of 7, finally) “black patch war” by batesandrewj

I’m studying the Black Patch Wars for a school paper, and came across your lyrics when I was doing research on the internet.

The first version of the KKK died out in the 1870s. The second version appeared after the movie “Birth of a Nation” was released. This is a pretty amazing fact to me. A terrorist group that was started by a Hollywood movie. “Birth of a Nation” didn’t come out until 1915, so the Black Patch War did not take place while the KKK was active.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that the Night Riders weren’t racist. Pretty much everyone was back then. There were some black tobacco farmers in the PPA (Planters Protective Association) and supposedly even in the Night Riders, and there were some black farmers who were victims. The main group of Night Riders led by Dr Amoss does not appear to have had race on their agenda. Another offshoot called the “Shirt Tail Night Riders” didn’t have much to do with tobacco but lynched black people and once shot a 2-year-old black child.

So it is a mixed record. They weren’t just like the KKK but they weren’t all heroes either. Besides, I took that you were performing “in character” portraying someone from history, not necessarily giving your personal views.

But hey, thanks for giving me a track to listen to while I’m working on my paper.

Found your blog while looking for info on the Black Patch Wars. The person you said”came on the offensive with pertinent questions about my connection to and interest in the Black Patch War. was i aware that the Night Riders were comprised largely of Klansmen? did i know that these lawless mobs who employed savage violence to pursuade poor farmers to join their cause also used the opportunity to lynch innocent black men? was i, in fact, racist? i was shocked; not at all by his interrogation and loose assertion, but by the fact it had taken nearly 6 months since the EP’s release for someone to raise the question” was only right in a KISS (keep It Simple Stupid) sort of way. You have a better handle on the reality of it. Almost every white person in KY or TN at this time was the child of a Confederate Vet/KKK member. Both sides of the war had connections with the KKK. Nonwhites tried to go with which ever side gave them the most advantage. When they got it right they were treated as successful “colored” members of society. When they got it wrong, they could be beaten or killed.

The better comparison is the one I believe you make. The Black Patch Wars are a part of the labor wars of the late 19th & early 20th century. Try googling Albert Parsons and Lucy Parsons for some historic people who are more inline with your thinking. They could also be seen as the prototypes of some of the “bad” people of America’s first full length movie, Birth of a Nation.

The south has an old history of people switching sides. You might also want to goolge the Colored Regiments of the New Orleans Home Guard. Started by fleeing the revolution in Hati, it was a way for people of color to be armed to the teeth with heavy weapons. These regiments held the middle of Jackson’s battle line at the battle of New Orleans. They also started the Civil War as part of the Confederate army. (New Orleans was a Confederate city in a Confederate state.) When New Orleans fell to Union forces, they quick switched sides and became the first two regiments of color in the Union army.

Keep speaking the truth.
