Contrary to myth, Lee did not oppose slavery or secession. He called slavery “necessary for their instruction as a race,” he enslaved free black people in his invasion of the North, and after the war, opposed black suffrage. Adam Serwer ???Verified account @AdamSerwer Robert E. Lee was a traitor, a brute and a slaver who wouldn't even trade black union soldiers taken prisoner for the lives of his own men because he saw black people as property to be owned. This article from right after the Civil War ended is an account from Wesley Norris, one of the people Lee enslaved, describing Lee as a brutal master. Lee was a brutal slaveowner and traitor. Period.
