There were slaves in the North which were tolerated for some time, but the South was built upon slavery.

Conservative Christianity is headquartered in the South.

Freedom has been used throughout history to mean different things…. In the Civil War the North fought for individual freedom while the South fought for community freedom.

The teachings of Christ do not accommodate themselves to segregation and discrimination against Blacks.

If you are a representative, and poor people don’t vote, you’re not going to pay particular attention to the needs of the poor.

As globalization proceeds, tribalism increases.

Americans want individual freedom and yet they want strong communities. There is some contradiction there.

We live with contradictions all the time. The South in the 1960s were among the most patriotic in the country, yet at the same time it was they who thwarted the Federal Government and resisted the law of the land.
