I will also touch on how blacks were treated both before and after the war and how the white population is being treated now as a minority.įirst things first, the 16th president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln Lincoln was NOT an abolitionist. What the war was really about, and both the point of view of Confederate Generals and Union Generals on the act of slavery. Yes, they existed and there were over 65,000 of them, both slave and free. I am going to speak about the black Confederates. I will warn you now I am a very intellectual individual and if you try to contradict me I can throw a book of solid facts at you. This is not written to offend anyone who doesn’t share my same beliefs, but I can assure you that if you were taught and believe the “Northern ways of life” that this will, for lack of better terms, piss you off.


They can also, however, attest to the fact that I am not, in any way, shape or form, a prejudiced person. I am, however, tired of hearing such things as: “Southerners are ignorant,” “Southerners are trash,” “Southerners are racists,” “The Civil war was over slavery,” “whites treated the blacks horribly,” “Southerners are uneducated.” But so far the worst is that the “South was wrong.” and “the Union was correct.”Īs I said before, I am a PROUD Southern woman and anyone who knows me can attest to the fact that I am a loud, proud, outspoken person when it comes to my heritage. I am a devout Southerner who is proud of my heritage. CONFEDERATE AMERICAN PRIDE: The Civil war was NOT over slavery Confederate American Pride
