No, YOU need a history lesson. You like to see things through a manichean lens - angelic good guys vs evil satanic bad guys. The real world isn't and wasn't like that. The fact is liberals and progressives were usually pretty racist until the 1960's = Woodrow Wilson, FDR, even JFK in 1957 are examples. Republicans, which were always the pro-business, pro-capitalist party, were much much less so.
