While that is true the Confederates were fighting for slavery and got their asses whooped by one general. I’d respect remembering the confederation. Calling that your heritage is a bit ridiculous. Literally no one was born and raised in the Confederacy. Yea plenty were born in those 5 years but that’s not even a decade. It had less of an effect on your heritage than your great great great grandfathers emo phase. They really should be a historical study. Much like ancient Greece.
They fought for slavery and lost a hundred thousand lives, had the land devastated. They believed so much in the cause of slavery that they died en masse for it.
The impact on both sides of that struggle is being felt of both sides of the mason Dixon line to this day. As is evidenced by all those confederate flags and the current rejection of the impact of slavery on society at large, the denial of the marginalization of black people in our society that is not mirrored in other societies.
Calling that impact an emo phase will put you in a place where you lack the ability understand it.
