You mean the black slaves forced at gunpoint to dig trenches for the confederate army? Not too many black soldiers in that army, never mind blacks allowed to bear arms.
They did exist, but the CSA only sanctioned their being armed four weeks exactly before Appamatox as a last-ditch effort to salvage the war effort, and they probably wouldn't even have tried it if Robert E. Lee didn't convince them it could work.
And even if they fought for longer, if even poor whites can be caught up in the disconnect between the "Northern Aggression" rhetoric and the reality of why the Confederacy existed in the first place, I see no problem seeing why the slaves, many of whom who had been more or less forced to live in a sort of Platonic Cave by Massa for the past two centuries with a good-sized portion no doubt unable to break on through, wouldn't be caught up in it as well.
