  I’m a huge study of history, and yet I still don’t find that anything has changed. The corruption and favoritism haven’t changed. I love my country, I believe in my fellow Americans. After 33 years in public service and the sacrifices I watched from my men, the men I promised to do my best to bring home. Our government betrayed us and the elite got richer with absolutely no accountability or recourse.  We The American People have been betrayed. Make no mistake.

  Thank you for presenting another view of the war and the suffering of its victims.<br>I am a big fan of Patrick Cleburne. His poignant words were truly prophetic.

  My Great Grandfather was in a Union outfit guarding a lighthouse on the west coast surfing and listening to the Beach Boys drinking Corona.

  It would be interesting to hear a similar video on the changes and problems during the American Revolution.

  Those who fled to Texas suffered from brutal Indian depredations. &nbsp;&quot;A Fate Worse than Death,&quot; is an encyclopedia of cases of White captives, much of which occurs in Texas, and, &quot;The Settlers&apos; War&quot; is a history of the settlers&apos; fight against Indian raiders, during the Civil War, when neither the USA nor CSA offered any help, both by Gregory Michno are worth reading. &nbsp;Some of the Southerners brought a slave or two with them. In one case, a female slave defended white women and children with a shotgun when Commanches raided their homestead. &nbsp;They dealt with her brutally as they did with any who resisted (even then, it was often brutal beyond imagination). &nbsp;The famous John Ford film, &quot;The Searchers,&quot; starring John Wayne is a combination of several Texas Captive narratives, and although it takes place post-CW, it is a good representation of the vulnerability of settlers in Texas dealt with for decades.

  I want to thank your team for making this video, it&apos;s the only comprehensive one I&apos;ve found so far on the civilian side of the conflict and the suffering endured.
