Today's Protests Resemble What Happened in Andrew Jackson's Day

   A likeness to the past. In 1835, abolitionists began sending anti-slavery tracts out, calling for justice for Blacks, in essence. Those on the other side of the issue deemed the tracts to be "incendiary," and suggested the movement for Blacks was an effort to "destroy the union." Even so, today, there are those who see  the current movement as but an attempt to stir up trouble, and those involved in it are often accused of siding with those who seek anarchy and the destruction of our government.
  Just a little something I picked up as I studied Andrew Jackson in Wikipedia.
