US Civil War
I basically stated that the part in the Declaration of Independence that says " all men are created equal" meant that no man was so high above another that he was to own another fellow man and that the issue of slavery eventually led to the civil war.
She said I was wrong and that the civil war was mainly about states rights.
I said it was about the states right to use slave labor.
She disagrees but admits that the south was agricultural (who did most of the planting ?) and the north was mostly industrial.
I think slavery is the big elephant in the room that no one wants to mention when talking about the civil war.
She is a southern belle. I too was born south of the Mason Dixon so just mention whether you are a Yankee or not when replying and let's see where this ends up.
And they will remember...
