Happy 160th anniversary of a bunch of murderous cowards finally giving up on the idea that they should own other human beings.
"The Battle of Appomattox Court House [...] was the final engagement of Confederate General in Chief Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia before they surrendered to the Union Army of the Potomac under the Commanding General of the United States Army, Ulysses S. Grant."
