@@zacwells8095 unfortunately you are wrong, they didn't fight for slavery, many confederate soldiers didn't have a choice, the majority of them were fighting for there families and their homes, I have an ancestor who served in the confederate army and he was poor, he was captured at the battle of Fredericksburg and sent to the Elmira prison camp in New York and died after 4 months of being in the prison camp. If anything I can tell your ignorant and know nothing about history, and you agree with history being destroyed. SHAME ON YOU!😡
A very religious and brave man, General Thomas ''Stonewall'' Jackson has always been my hero. Ever since I wrote a paper on him in the 8th grade. The more I learned about the man the more I wanted to learn. God bless and keep you General, from a woman in Pennsylvania.
@Langston Duncan Robert e lee wasn’t even racist in fact he didn’t even own slaves. Do your research on Robert e lee. The people down north were racist also the flag as his profile pic is the battle flag. Please do your research
@@random-fm1er you are right Robert e Lee was not racist he was a true American hero and a good Christian man Stonewall Jackson was the same way I think he died to soon.
@@wilburshuman well that sure is ironic. United daughters of the confederacy essentially re-wrote history because they weren’t able to admit their husbands, brothers, and fathers caught for slavery.
@@wilburshuman I don’t think you’re stupid you’re just misinformed. Those vets may have been kind and nice people but the fact of the matter is that the confederacy fought for slavery. They even admitted it themselves. The cornerstone speech is probably the most damning piece of evidence as it was made by the Vice President of the confederate states of America. It’s not even the only piece of evidence many of the states reasoning for seceding lost slavery. There’s nothing dispute this since it’s a fact.
Exactly correct Washington the federal government was overreacting. Hell the Confederate army had African American, native American army divisions on the front lines the reason no one ever heard of those divisions is because they where not involved in the major battles
Improved nursing skills would have had general sitting up and moving light physical therapy to prevent pneumonia which killed him. Resting was the convalescent standard in those days but the lungs start to fill up with fluid.
@@infidelfonic7961 You show your ignorance. This was not about salvery. Schools fail students. Lincoln went that route to justify his war . His wife had salves. And kept them after the war. She came from wealth. Read the history of the South & the war by historians. Experts who read facts. The confederate army was an outstanding fighting force. 4yrs they held off an opponent that outmanned them. And had more equipment. And supplies. Pls learn the truth. These average southerners had no salves. They were poor farmers. Learn about the northern factories working kids & adults under horrible conditions. The rich northerners also had salves. Dignified it by calling them servants. Rich blacks owned salves. Facts are facts. As a student of history, reading historians books, I learned a lot. Schools are lacking in facts. Especially Northern schools.
As a corsican, I can understand the southerner love for native soil and spirit of independence, but I cant understand slavery and segregation that followed....
@Ragar McKinney not about slavery you say? Here’s an excerpt from the Mississippi ordinance of Secession. “Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world.” Alright, there’s the quote, do I need to provide more? Or is this good enough?
Lincoln had to keep his precious Government going, he wanted to send all the blacks back to Africa. Mississippi had 36 Black Plantation Owners with Slaves and they all grew cotton. The South had many Black Plantation Owners with Slaves. All of this can be found on Ancestry. This War was nothing more than greed and Lincoln was a psychopath. Let us not forget the North owned slaves too.
The csa was a slave nation, and it left the union because they wanted to keep slavery . it was not about the state right's and lee was a slave owner and jackson said that slavery was a natural order of things. That means he believed that black people should be enslaved To make them smart. I think we can all say slavery is bad, and csa was bad. Stop saying the csa was good it really wasn't good.
Most of the CSA were not slave owners but state loving men who wanted to each of their states to live under their own way of living, whether it was through slavery or not. Those who fought for the Confederacy did not like the thought of being told how to live to a certain extent. They loved the United States and the Union but did not love having to be forced to live a certain way of life. That was the one of the main reasons why the colonizers fought the British Empire. Yes slavery is very bad, but was it any worse than after the end of slavery? The African Americans went from slavery to segregation, not just in the south but throughout the entire country.
Margart Sanger was a eugenicist. She believed black people are inferior. She founded Planned Parenthood and advocated abortion as a means to limit the number of inferior people. Black women get most of the abortions. Her plan is working!
Secession happened as a protest to Lincoln not allowing the expansion of slavery in other states. Thus, states rights were being impeded. Lincoln actually was not ridding the country of slavery where it was established.
Lincoln was trying to tax the South at 40% on cotton. He also lied to the South saying he wouldn't free the slaves. The North had slaves too, they just called them servants. I had 9 ancestors that War that fought for the CSA and owned zero slaves. I have studied this War in Great detail and there are many discrepancies in these so called History books. Did you know there were 36 Black Plantation Owners in Mississippi alone? Source, Ancestry.
@@smokingunstudios6474 Michael Shaara wrote "Killer Angels," the novel that was the basis for the "Gettysburg" film. His son Jeff wrote the novel "Gods and Generals," which is quite different from this film of the same name.
"Gettysburg" covered a much shorter time frame (late June into early July 1863), whereas "G&G" covered a longer time frame (from early spring of 1861 to Jackson's death in May 1863). "Gettysburg" was originally planned (and filmed) as a TV miniseries, but changed to very long theatrical product. The most accurate review I read described "G&G" as a movie that mostly featured Confederates talking a lot. It's an excellent film, but there were lots of things filmed that never made it into the release cut.
It’s a movie, based on a book which has a counter part based on another book by the same author (or authors son) looking at opposite sides of the same conflict. both are human with human bias, both are well written and acted out. They are written from the perspective of there respective sides and the beliefs held by either side. (The other movie is “Gettysburg”)
@@collectiques1 are you stupid? This movie came out in the early two thousands and California still had a republican governor. California also wasn’t the state we think of it as we do now. Your inability to differentiate and think about the context says a lot.
I’m so glad and blessed to have 12 Confederate Ancestors throughout my family! Also this is one my favorite movies of all time!!
I had 9, Mississippi 2nd and 34th Infantry, May they R.I.P.
God bless them good sir amazing people I my eyes fighting for true freedom under magnificent generals God bless the confederacy
i am so glad my ancestors fought to keep the union alive. i had relatives who fought for both sides
Hell yeah! Fight for slavery! Fight for the right to oppress others! What heroes!!
They deserve the utmost respect and honor for which they served...
They’ll get what they deserve in hell, they fought for the institution of Slavery.

One of the greatest movies ever in my opinion
I certainly agree, its been years since I watched it now and just watching this had brought back all the emotion. Best film ever for me.
I saw it received terrible reviews, so it must be a great movie.
No matter Grey or Blue, both fought with honor and should be remembered. May we learn from history and honor those who fought for us.
One of the best Generals to serve the South.

The most darkest and saddest years of our nations history....these were the true "greatest generation" this nation ever produced
I haven't seen this movie eight years. Great movie. Sad just seeing these few minutes of it!
one of my fav movies bout my heroes, Generals Lee and Jackson, and i love this song

Wow what a bone-chilling song the road that will take me home
I have Gods and Generals with Gettysburg on dual DVD...
Wow that's amazing here's a medal 🏅
I have 5 , 6th great grandfathers who fought for the Confederacy. They were fighting for their rights, they were all opposed towards slavery.
Exactly correct Washington the federal government was overreacting. Hell the Confederate army had African American, native American army divisions on the front lines the reason no one ever heard of those divisions is because they where not involved in the major battles
My 6th great uncle is Robert E. Lee. Also my blood line dates back to the trail of tears
This had me balling.. yep
DEO VINDICE
great show
The scenes with the Irish Brigades at the stonewall hits like a ton of bricks everytime i watch G&G. 😢
ONLY ONE ARMY IS ETERNAL! Deo vindice!!!
Very well done, Derek D!
Escenas de una extraordinaria película.
And dont forget hunter s maguire surgeon general who is presented so well in this fine film

I like the way Jackson dies, boy
It's too bad that the very beginning and end are cut off.
The CSA did there best with what they had. Nobody can say anything different!!
Hell yeah man. They fought the best they could! They stood up for slavery! What heroes!!
