Chapter 60: We want to be grateful

"It seems that you have a lot of Africans in the United States!" Annie thought for a while, "but I don't seem to see a few."
"Black people have black communities, and white people have white communities." Sheffield explained simply, "Generally, you don't get involved in each other's communities, you can't see each other, but there will be more black people in the northern states. There are more black people in the north, but the black people in the north are not fixed in one place and are everywhere. "
This also belongs to my own national conditions in the United States of America. It was not obvious that Anne had come to Texas to experience it. The reason why I did not see the black group is because the black group here is relatively honest.
Long before the Civil War, because the south was dominated by plantation economies, it required huge manpower to work. The rebellion of these labor forces is predictable, so almost every plantation owner must be equipped with an armed force that can deter the rebellion. Such things as joint defense and militia are normal, which is why the Civil War in the South, with only a quarter of the manpower in the North, played a one-to-two exchange ratio.
After the Civil War, in fact, there was no difference, because soon the Democrats, with the support of the Dixie, led the state governments of the southern states, and a number of bills were passed. Virginia passed a bill declaring that racial intermarriage was illegal. Because of the existence of the Sheffield family, Texas quickly followed suit, and similar laws were passed in southern states for a while.
"This bill is based on equality and order. Whites and blacks do not interfere with each other. At the same time, they also give blacks a chance to manage themselves and prove that they have the ability to live independently of whites." Sheffield rubbed her teeth He felt that his level of scrubbing could not keep up with the moral bottom line of this bill.
But what can I do? The appearance of the two ethnic groups is too far apart, not to mention the United States. Even in any country, the main ethnic group will look at the opposite group from its appearance. It's just that some people dare to say it, some people dare not say it, and there are very few people who have no such idea at all.
In addition, the Texas bill is already very user-friendly. After all, some seniors have come forward to interfere. Taking Virginia ’s bill only distinguishing between whites and blacks, Florida was the first to declare interracial intermarriage illegal and defined the concept of ethnicity: anyone, as long as one-eighth or more of black descent, is considered People of color. This is the beginning of the law of a drop of blood.
The Texas bill adds the Latin ethnic group. This is progress, leaving room for change.
The original plan to go to New Orleans remains the same, but Sheffield keeps his eye on and asks Martin Luther King to find some black guards, and then he will go there with himself.
"It's you southerners who have established laws and segregated black people by virtue of their right to vote. Then used the tradition of holding guns to make black people honest?" Anne listened for a long time and only extracted such a little useful information. .
"You can't say that. There are customs everywhere. Do you think Yankee is noble? Just they don't say it. We Dixies are more sincere and don't like it or don't like it," Sheffield said with great awe. "And it's not a bad thing. There is a saying that distance creates beauty. It's actually good not to interfere with each other."
Sheffield actually hopes that the United States will continue to do so forever. After all, stability is above everything, but he also knows that this is basically impossible, because the bill of blood principle is almost destined to isolate white people from the possibility of assimilating other ethnic groups. One thing is that the black lineage is black. In this way, the black ethnic group will only grow bigger and bigger, and the white people will become fewer and fewer.
If the people of the Republic think so, the Tang Dynasty can only be regarded as the Hu Dynasty.
"I didn't say it was wrong!" Upon hearing Sheffield's rebuttal, Annie's voice was aggrieved. "Just ask."
"Actually, this problem has to be solved, and we also expect European immigrants to join us!" Sheffield said. This is the only solution, but it's not working now. Now the economy of the United States is not good. When the economy is not good, people will be excluded. At this time, it should be the moment when the citizens of the United States are the most excluded. It has reached the point where they are not white, yellow, or black. Even if it is European immigrants will also arouse the resentment of citizens of the United States.
If you want European immigrants to ensure that the main ethnic groups of the United States do not have problems, then Europe should not think about it. Not only must the war continue, but even if the war is stopped, the economy of these European countries will not become comfortable. Only poor countries will continue to breed offspring. For the prosperity of the United States, it is better that Europe becomes Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Sheffield didn't like the United Nations nation is too complicated, the reason is so simple, just brainwashing the white group only needs one set of speech, and brainwashing the three major ethnic groups, you have to prepare different speeches. These rhetoric may even contradict themselves, and after all, it is not a long-term solution. If there were only white people, it would be easier to flicker.
Sheffield brought two black and white bodyguards. This time, she really went out to see Lao Tzu's country. Anne murmured in a strange way, "Osad? Dublin? Habsburg?"
"Do n’t you Europeans say that the United States is a fake empire? That ’s right, these are all cities in Texas. Look at the name of the city? That ’s right, Sheffield, that ’s a ranch near the Indian territory. The first ranch in Texas. "Sheffield brags at the map, not ashamed but proud.
"What else?" Anne's bright-eyed boss was very curious about Sheffield's remarks.
"Of course, before the Indians received the Mayflower European immigrants, we descendants of the robbers must be grateful." Sheffield glanced at Annie. "So when fighting, let the Indians fight alongside us."
Back in Sheffield, Texas, I changed back to straw hat overalls, suits and leather shoes are not suitable for the environment here, but Anne is French and does not need to go to the country to follow the custom.
"The equipment of the factory must be renovated, and the technical personnel in Europe will not arrive in a long time." Sheffield pointed in the factory as if he were really an expert in this field. In fact, what he learned had nothing to do with the factory, and even bought a degree in theology.
Not far from Sheffield, a greasy child wearing a hat was struggling to move parts, and the tender face was full of exhaustion, as if everything had nothing to do with himself.
"Renovation of machinery will make workers more comfortable!" Anne, who is wearing a white long skirt, added, pointing to the working child labor. "This will produce greater profits. The relationship between the factory and the workers is best Thanksgiving. We are equally grateful for the work of the workers. "
