Dont pay so much attention to Democrat vs Republican... Those sides have changed throughout history... Instead look at conservative vs liberal and you'll find a more consistent history of racism vs equal rights, for or against slavery, women's rights, human rights, freedom of religion... etc... Just look it up. You'll find one side consistently fighting for equality with another side resisting change and equality.
People like to say Democrats were in favor of slavery, which is true, but what they often forget to tell you is they were conservative democrats of the south.
