Both sides lie about where they went, fact is some remained in the DNC, some tried to form their own party, failed and joined the GOP. But the racist policies they supported as members of the DNC died as a platform in 1948, and never gained any power back in the DNC after that point, while the Southern Strategy took hold in the GOP. Both party members try to lie and point fingers at each other despite historical fact.
