Pretty much the above question. Civil War. I was thinking blacks, because there was a lot of racism in the south at that time.

I was watching Ken Bun’s Civil War, and it pointed out how Davis is often seen as somewhat of a villain. A writer being interviewed claimed that the reason for this was that after the war, the Southerners did not want to blame the generals (Lee did his very best to do what he thought was right) so they instead blamed the politicians. Davis, being the “big boss politician,” did quite nicely, and the Northerners were just as happy to adopt him as their own villain as well. Do you think this is true?

Think about it… If you wanted to live in Europe or New York or San Francisco or Seattle, you would have to choose to live north of it, but if you liked Australia or south America or S.Africa, you would have to forever choose to live south of it. Interesting question, which side of the line would you choose?
