Don’t forget that the south was trying to force the north ro send back escaped slaves, depite the north using their states rights to say no. The south would also send Bounty hunters to go kidnap free born black people to sell into slavery. So yeah, states rights was an issue. The right to identify people as human.
But let’s not also forget that the confederate constitution had a passage that says that there will not be any laws capable of being passed that infringe on the right to own black people
Article I Section 9(4) No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed
Slavery was about 99% of what drove the entire thing, so it makes sense to me.
Interesting. It didn’t even end Slavery in the US tho
What??
Probably referring to
Essentially allowing slavery.
I’m surprised it’s not called the States’ Rights War.
Because only confed apologists use that term, and to my knowledge there are no confed apologists in Iceland.
Not true. It’s still listed as such in most textbooks in the south.🙄
Yes, like I said:
only confed apologists use that term
Yes, as well as every kid that trusts their teacher before having the ability to form their own opinion.
The primary context of your link is very old history textbooks.
