“Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three lefts do.”
– ANONYMOUS
Southern Heritage:
“South ruled politically and economically by the planter aristocracy; wealthy (slave trading) plantation owners.”
“[They were] /’crackers’, ’poor white trash’, ’hillbillies’, ’clay eaters’: slaveless whites (a full 3/4 of the white population) that raised corn and hogs; described as
listless, shiftless, and misshapen; defended the slavery system because they all hoped to own slaves.”
