Slavery wasn’t killed, it was just put behind bars.
It was a bit of a premature celebration. But it’s hard to fault their optimism at the time. Several hundred-thousand slavers and slaver-supporters had just been shot, and the rest disenfranchised, and that’s a pretty good clip! Shame about everything that came after.
It’s actually way worse than most are led to believe. The hatred never left it just festered. The people that were against it didn’t do anything to change the people’s mind and that meant that they couldn’t enslave them but they could still hate them. KKK and a whole bunch of pro white movements to this day started over this.
And the traitors weren’t buried either. They got pardoned
They basically freed slaves, kicked them off their master’s land and immediately made homelessness punishable with prison, taking those freed slaves and throwing them right back into slavery through the prison system.
Now we have zombie treason coming back for revenge as fascism.
Grave wasn’t deep enough.
Get your shovels, boys. We got another grave to dig.
