GDG- NPS & slavery

[ATMackeyJr at aol.com]

How many there as a result of the Civil War--a war that came about due to  
slavery?  I seem to recall a history of Arlington before it was a  cemetery. 
 I wonder who lived there?
 
Best Regards,
Al Mackey

So over 1/4 million people buried in Arlington and  the big  story is about 
slavery?

Give me a  break.

If Gettysburg shouldn't have information about   slavery we might want to 
get all that pesky context out of other  National  Parks too. Who goes to 
Independence Hall to learn about  taxation? who goes to  Fort McHenry to 
learn 
about impressment? Who  goes to Fort Sumter to learn  about secession?
