[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 549809, member: 484"] [b]Re: what would you do[/b] Nope Dill, dont have much time for that. The quote from the UVA is very interesting. On many different levels. But what it does make plain is that the slave issue in the southern states was not what was at issue, it was elsewhere. And the thought of the federal government forcing its will upon the states was totally incompatible with the independent nature of the south. I also find the statement a very interesting admission of life in the north, as persecutions of people that were different was quite active (read racism here) And the crown in the whole article was So racism is not a south thing after all, now was it? And that plays right into the next statement of I have heard several historians say that many of the original founders of the KKK were not Southerners, but damnable Yankee carpet baggers from the north trying to keep that slave labor from moving north to interrupt the labor force there. d [/QUOTE]
