H.K.,
It was good to hear from you today. Sorry, I have not been receiving your emails but hopefully this will correct the problem. I have attached the articles from our so called local activist "Hollywood" Groves. The Articles dated August 14, 2008 are in responce to your letter while January 29, 2009 is the latest. It hurts me to hear ignorant people speak this way of you and our beloved Southland. Some people choose to remain ignorant to the cause no matter what the truth is. However, we who do know the truth abouth the WBTS and OUR beloved Dixie, love you and appreciate you speading the TRUTH.
(I will have to send each page in seperate emails due to size restraints)

Dear H.D.,
I read the article submitted to the Grapeland messenger by Billy Groves. Please direct him to purchase from Dixie Outfitters a copy of the March Across Dixie DVD. There he shall see some of those Mayors and other officials I alluded to, and just maybe then he will expurgate some of his hate fill rhetoric from his thinking process. The name calling and what Mr. Groves thinks of me is irrelevant. The White man of the South is the only man who ever cared about the Black man and his well being. It is too bad that those White men of the North did and do so much to push asunder the loving relationship that Southern Blacks and Southern Whites found for each other in lieu of the economic institution of slavery that the whole world was complicit in. The slave chronicles go a long way toward providing proof of that fact. It is too bad that the South not only lost the War of Northern Aggression, but that it was even pushed to that point. Had it not happened, my Black family would not have found itself in this cesspool of social degradation and hate conjured up during the period of so called Reconstruction by the Northern conqueror. A successful modus operandi instituted by the Federal public school system, revisionist historians, biased media, and poverty pimps who increase their coffers, has trapped Mr. Groves and his White counterparts in a place that the almighty God would not want them to be.
The Confederate is as much any Black man of the South who wants to claim his ownership as any Southern White man. He earned a place of honor and dignity under this Christian banner, no matter if Hollywood or any other media outlet will tell the truth about it. The dream of King shall never come to fruition until Mr. Groves and those like him come to terms with the truth.
