ORIGINAL SOURCE

Half of the force holding Fort Pillow were Negroes, former slaves now enrolled in the Union Army. Toward them Forrest’s troops had the fierce, bitter animosity of men who had been educated to regard the colored race as inferior and who for the first time had encountered that race armed and fighting against white men. The sight enraged and perhaps terrified many of the Confederates and aroused in them the ugly spirit of a lynching mob.

From Castel, Albert. “The Fort Pillow Massacre: A Fresh Examination of the Evidence.” Civil War History 4.1 (1958): 37-50. Print.

[The source passage is from pages 46-47. The first sentence is on page 46. The rest is on page 47.]

EXERCISE 54–2 Avoiding plagiarism in MLA papers - 4 of 5: Albert Castel suggests that much of the brutality at Fort Pillow can be traced to racial attitudes. Half of the Union troops at Fort Pillow were blacks, men whom the Confederates considered their inferiors. The shock and perhaps fear of facing blacks in battle may well have unleashed the fury that led to the massacre (46-47).
