Most pre-civil war construction in Washington CD, including the White House and the Capitol building were built with significant amounts of slave labor. I've put together a post on the subject and I'll put it up in a day or two. Thanks again for your comment and the interesting slant it provided.<br />CHChina Handhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137884672692120783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12265028.post-56518666908816583812013-09-20T20:32:19.100-07:002013-09-20T20:32:19.100-07:00What you mention is very interesting, and has been...What you mention is very interesting, and has been something I've been thinking about since I visited DC for the first time, and took a look at the monuments. America fashions its revolution as a sort of ground-up democracy fighting tyranny, and dedicates all these monuments in honor of that victory. However, if slaves made the pyramids of Egypt, who the hell bankrolled all these monuments? The American revolution as you mentioned was backed by a bunch of wealthy elites.<br /><br />When you read about China's revolution against the Qing dynasty, they still needed the backing of the merchants and overseas Chinese to help. Revolutions are not cheap.<br /><br />Thanks for the post, it was a really good read.阿江https://www.blogger.com/profile/08765245665701835815noreply@blogger.com
