You aren't a Southerner. Or even a near one. The Lost Cause is near and dear to our hearts, it doesn't resonate with anyone else except for the closet racists.

To simplify, the history is very complex. Unless you are a period history major, what you think you know is probably a pack of lies. American history, as taught in pre-university level is almost pure mythology. Which is a country-wide tragedy.

You aren't a Southerner. More importantly, you aren't a Southerner who decided to question the status quo. Not that I blame you or Z, that is just the way it is. I tell you three times(Louis Carroll) that reality is different, and more complex, that what you have been taught.
