yeah, well when most of the rednecks around where I live talk about the south rising again, they're talking about their fantasy of a sovereign C.S.A.. It shouldn't and won't happen.
@Tphillips025 lol u wait the goverment if fallin fast and eventully all we have to do is seperate and they will leave us alone from the fact of they will have too many troubles and wars to deal with it wont happen soon but it will
There's no reason to want the southern states to 'rise again' any more. I love south, which is why I'm glad it lost the war. We're far better off as part of the United States.
These particular lyrics were written by Gen. Albert Pike if I remember correctly. Interesting fellow. Prolific Mason, possible Satanist, raised an Indian battalion that got whomped by Sigel and Curtis at Elkhorn Tavern. I wish I could take the music from this recording but have Elvis sing it. C'est la vie.
@vidman180 Way to play the race card for no reason... I'm talking about these rednecks that won't get over it and wear huge rebel flags... Why must they live in the past. Get over it!
@TennesseeReb1862 So what you are saying is slavery was on the way out in another 40 years or so due to modern equipment. Did you know they did not develop a reliable cotton picking machine until the 1940's. So all the slaves had to do was wait 40 or 50 years for segregation right. (Shakes head)
@686204 By the way you must realise that even with the abolishment of slavery by the north (which was a nice item of Lincoln) that it wasn't for the mid 1960's - about 100 years later - that the ex-slaves families got finaly there civil rights as every other ex-european! now free born american family.
If slavery and equalism between white and black was such an issue for Lincoln he would announced it before or with his election. The black people could earn their money with chosen work too.
Source, Declaration of Independence: "whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
Point follows: the Civil War should not have happened. The Union was violating the South's right to institute a new government.
I....I just open my eyes to the South. I can't believe i was so blind. The South fought for Freedom and rights. Look at what Bush did, He Ruin everything from this country. I bet the South would of know what is right.
@JDBlessin Its a lie, Why can't you open your Eyes? I once believe that the South kept slaves and stuff but I did more Research, They don't tell you everything in School. God bless the South!
LOL...look up the figures for the 1860 US Census. It shows very clearly (broken down by state & territory) what part of the country had slaves, and what part didn't.
After that sinks in...read the secession declarations of the seceded states, and block out the passages devoted to the protection of slave rights (er, I mean states rights), and see what you're left with.
@jediguardian1 By doing more research do you mean you listened to a bunch of propaganda songs like this one, and wanted to feel welcomed by the community of confederates on said videos?
@JDBlessin Nope, Most Union Soldiers fought to get there Citizen papers and more. The Confederates Fought for Freedom and Justice against the Evil Union. I didn't to Research here, I did it in other places and look at both points of view from the Grey and Blue. At the end I figure out the Grey(Confederates) where right.
The Union had over 1 million native-born soldiers fighting for it...including all of my CW ancestors.
Freedom? For who? Almost half the South's population was held in slavery. Roughly 1/3 of its white population were pro-Union, or at least anti-Confederate.
Yes or no...if Southern states have the right to secede without consent from the rest of the nation, then portions of those states had the right to vote to remain in the Union, and secede from the CSA?
@UnionStatesHeritage Yeah, 1 Million out of 11 Million. Why couldn't they leave the CSA alone? It wasn't about slavery, It was lies the Union threw to make the CSA look very bad, So no one would join it.
The lie, is that the war was not fought for the preservation of slave rights, by Southern states. You can't get around what those state's own secession declarations said about the reasons for secession, AT THE TIME OF THE WAR. After the war, Southerners started talking about states rights, which was nothing but a synonym for slave rights. While Southerners controlled US politics, they did everything in their power to suppress states rights...the ole Confederate Two-Step.
@jediguardian1 Freedom and justice? They owned people at the start of the war, and at the end of the war they didn't own people anymore. End of discussion, you're defending slave owners, stop it.
@JDBlessin Northerners (aka Yankees) owned slaves, too. Actually the second biggest slavery state was New York. Lincoln himself had slaves. So, cut the crap ! The South fought against a government poking around in states' businesses and imposing taxes and laws against the will of the people (much like Obama's administration - lol). Isn't that on what America was founded upon ? Just a question...
@Airman04061969 Actually America was founded upon taxation without representation in parliament, not a bunch of rich slave owners starting a war to spread and maintain the slave trade.
Yes or no...Western territories deserved the right to decide for themselves whether or not to adopt slavery, without Southern states poking around in their business, and using Federal power to force their way of life. on states that didn't want it.?
HAHA...I love the way CSA supporters just make up statements like "Northerners owned slaves too", because it sounds good, then adopt it as part of their politically-correct doctrine.
You can easily research the figures from the 1860 Census, which documents in detail, which states and territories had slave populations, and which didn't, AT THE TIME OF THE WAR, as opposed to a century before it, when all western nations were still involved in the practice.
The reality, if you subscribe to the Confederate view, that US States are a collection of sovereign countries, is that Northern states (members of the original 13 Colonies) were among the first western "nations" to abolish slavery. They did so INDEPENDENTLY of the Federal Union. What part of that is so hard to understand?
Vermont abolished it before the Federal Union existed. Most states in the Midwest, like Minnesota, never had slavery to begin with.
@UnionStatesHeritage Slavery existed long before the Federal Union existed as well, Robert E Less was pro-abolishionist himself as were many of the northern southerners, just in stages over several decades to avoid mass anarchy and backlash. Slavery was on the way out the door regardless of how it was to happen. 1860's or like in Brazil the 1890's, technology and the modern age was trumping the centuries old practice.
@JDBlessin Hahahaha, Thats all you have to say? How I'm I Defending Slaves? The Union also had Slaves, They were Racist! Even the Leaders said they were just using Blacks as Cannon Fodders. There was Blacks in the CSA and they had a Big Tribute to them, I bet the Union didn't gave a Damn did they?
Really the best way to do this is to form our new confederate gov. This will be slow but sure.When uncle sam sees our peaceful but powerful movement he will have to give up and bow at our feet.Uncle is weak now due to his corruption.Our God is greater than his god of money. DEO VINDICE.
USA and Europe should be country only for Europeans and Indians. The rest should be deported back to their own countries. EUROPE AND AMERICA SHOULD ONCE AGAIN BE A RICH COUNTRY FOR THE ARYAN RACE!
@NPDkampf Don't agree with that at all . There are many resources here and blessings that all should be able to share in . As far as that goes remember people from Mexico fought for the South .
Where can I find all these photos on the net and maybe more?I mean I've been trying to find a big gallery for paintings about the Civil War but I can't find a good site.
virginia, the carolinas and georgia reclaimed the very limited authority that, as sovereign nations, they had delegated to the federal government. none of the 13 nations that founded these united states would have entered such a union had it known that in less than a century the entity they had created would by force of arms subjugate its creators.
can i just say that you are a legend. there are many many videos on youtube which feature this particular clawhammer banjo style of 'Dixie'. I could not find the song on UK iTunes anywhere. I knew from one video that it was Bobby Horton, but it kept giving me a guitar version. It wasn't until i put in the specific title that you offered here that it actually came up! magic! Nice one mate!!!
i wish in the text books of schools that wouldn't say the south was all racis and hated all the blacks and the north was good they should learn about the black confederates who fought for the south and hated the north
@Anubis2358 sir, the Confederate states of America is still around. even though that the Confederate Army surrendered, there was never a peace treaty of any kind between the two governments. So today the confederacy is just 13 occupied states. but if things in Washington keep going the way its going, we may just see the re-awaking of our great country.
Think, people! Victors write the history, and each side carries its own biases. The truth lies usually somewhere in the middle.
Neither side viewed slavery favorably. Had it been allowed to die its well-deserved death over time in an independent Confederacy, blacks could have transitioned gradually to free life instead of suffering under Reconstruction and as a group today would arguably be far better off today than their current sad plight, exceptions noted.
@chronos624 aint that the truth, at that point in time slavery was a dying institution, with the south becoming more industrialized with cotton mills and other things to that sort. they even realized it back then, but some people could not let it die of natural causes, they wanted to murder it and has a result of it both sides lost alot
The south did not fight for slavery, white power, national socialism or anything. For do tell me, why did Jefferson have a BLACK ADOPTED SON, why did Robert E. Lee even CONDEMN slavery and yet fought for the confederate? Nay, they had different views, the Confederate did not want to let them all go with the snap of two fingers but work them in to society.
The Confederates fought for their freedom and what they thought were right.
@Kixt Deo Vindice. I agree with this Kixt. And Furthermore, the Federalism in this country is what is killing it, it has become to centralized, and now schools teach what they DEEM appropriate instead of what happened. One need only look to the journals of the soldiers, and read what was their cause.
Note that the schools are still under state and local control, aside from NCLB. The textbooks are pro-North of course, but I would not describe what I was taught about the War Between the States in my Nashville, TN high school as Yankee propaganda. We were taught that slavery was only one of the causes, and that Reconstruction sucked for all southerners, blacks included. Still, it's very important to preserve state's rights in education and repeal NCLB.
@fearlessfred14 - That's what we were taught in Canada about 1960 when American history was still taught as part of the grade 13 curriculum in Ontario schools. But that was a long time ago -- and it's now become politically incorrect to see the Civil War as anything other than a freeing of blacks from the evils of slavery. We have finally all bought Lincoln's propaganda. And we don't teach American or British history any more. We have turned our backs on our collective history. Damn PC!!
I graduated in 2008, so the same stuff is probably still being taught there. Of course, we learn black history too, but that's not a bad thing at all. The central point in the race-related history I was taught is that it was really about class, which is an important thing to remember. I think the reason for PC in many areas is that people don't want to hear that it was rich white people oppressing the poor with far less regard for color than is usually mentioned.
@Kixt People are ignorant idiots mate. Less than 25% of Southerners actually owned slaves. Uneducated people just claim that the American civil war was all about slavery and nothing else. States rights, tariffs and Northern exploitation of the South played a bigger role than slavery in the secession of the Southern States and founding of the CSA. Take care!
@Kixt The funny thing is the same debate is coming up again today. States are wanting their rights. It can be seen in California with their Medical Marijuana laws, and in various states recently passed weapon laws (I believe Montana was one) and succession legislation. The Confederacy was right all along. Maybe those bold Confederates won't have fought for nil? Hopefully this time it's handled in the courts and the Senate!
@Kixt The war was over extreme unfair taxation without representation and self determination,States rights and the right of all people to throw off the chains of tyrannical government as outlined in the Declaration of Independence and US Constitution.
The moneyed vultures in the North extorted 85% of their taxes from the South,almost all of which was spent in the North,while profits were deposited in the banks of the North,that den of vipers and thieves..
@dieyoubastards Are you honestly this dumb? You see in order for a government to be tyrannical, they have to violate the rights of the people they are ruling over FIRST. No tyrannical government = No right to throw off the chain of a tyrannical government HURRR DURRR. So there had to be an initial right violated by the north towards the south, and there wasn't.
@balderdashandpiffle The American colonies payed taxes to Britian and had no representation in parliament, so of course the colonies had reason to secede.
@Kixt wut happened when the south vice president, alexander stephens said himself that the blacks were slaves and property and lesser than whites. what was the vice president backing then? you gave two prominent examples, are you daft? it wasnt racism back then, it was the way it is; jefferson adopting a black son is a rarity but doesn't mean he didn't keep slaves. The Confederates were tricked into thinking they were fighting for their 'freedom'.
@Kixt hell yea. im from Massachusetts and i understand the fundamental differences between what the south really fought for versus the popular conception. from the standpoint of a history major, its clear that it was a division of socio-economic, regional, and cultural differences, not just a cut and dried slaves verus no slaves debate
@pattothemaxx Thank you for your truthfulness. I love the scene from the Simpsons where Apo is trying to get US citizenship and the interviewer asks him the cause of the Civil War. He replies almost the same way you did . And the interviewer says '' Just say Slavery '' . Cracks me up . Truth in humor . Thanks again .
I luv it when idiots (especially foreign devils) discuss US history without bothering to check the veracity of the inaccurate drivel they type.
Check the dates on when INDIVIDUAL states in the North abolished slavery, INDEPENDENTLY of the Federal Union...then cross-reference that info, with the 1860 US census records, which break down by state & territory, the figures on slave/free populations.
Guess what? DUUH Vermont abolished slavery BEFORE the nation was founded...1777.
Kixt got it pretty much right on USH. I believe the northern states did give up slavery, while the southern states kept it. However, the war was not fought due to slavery. It was state's rights.
I don't remember the exact numbers, but it was only around 3% of the population, in the southern states, who actually owned slaves. That number may be a bit higher, but just think of the elite few.
According to the seceded states own secession declarations...it most definitely was fought over slavery. States Rights is synonymous with slavery to Southern politicians of the day. Southern states spent decades trying to curtail states rights in the form of fugitive slave laws, and dictating the slave/free constitutions of newly formed states.
That percentage keeps getting lower. With so few people owning slaves how could almost HALF the pop. of the South consist of slaves?
Once again, I will quote the Confederacy's gray ghost himself, John Singleton Mosby..."the South fought on account of the thing we quarreled with the North about. I never heard of any other cause for quarrel, than slavery".
His statement backs up every secession declaration, AND the Cornerstone Speech.
"I tried all in my power to avert this war. I saw it coming, for twelve years I worked night and day to prevent it, but I could not. The North was mad and blind; it would not let us govern ourselves, and so the war came, and now it must go on till the last man of this generation falls in his tracks, and his children seize the musket and fight our battle, unless you acknowledge our right to self government.
"So the case stands, and under all the passion of the parties and the cries of battle lie the two chief moving causes of the struggle. Union means so many millions a year lost to the South; secession means the loss of the same millions to the North. The love of money is the root of this as of many many other evils … the quarrel between North and South is, as it stands, solely a fiscal quarrel." – Charles Dickens
"scarcely had we escaped a meaningless war with France, when a yet darker fate, threatened us, the danger of becoming involved in the American Civil War on the side of the Southern slave owners. The issue in America arose from the demand of the Southern slave-owning states to dominate the politics of the whole Union, as the only means by which the ultimate extinction of slavery could be avoided. Slavery was indeed in no immediate danger of suppression...
cont...The abolitionist agitation had not converted the North, but it had maddened the slave owners of the South, and driven them into a course of action, which proved their undoing. For years they dictated to their fellow citizens of the north, and bullied the whole Union. The Northerners immersed in business, were more interested in developing the resources of the country, than in conducting its politics, while the Southern gentleman...
cont...left the slave driving to overseers, and interested themselves in the affairs of state. But, at last the apparently in-exhaustible patience of he North gave out, and the choice of Lincoln as President-elect, signified that a stand would be made. It was no part of Lincoln's Presidential programme to abolish slavery in the existing states, but he would no longer permit them to control the policy of the Federal Government...
cont...or to force the peculiar institution on new states in the West".
British History In the Nineteen Century, 1782-1901...George Macaulay Trevelyan
A British history book written in 1922, when collective memory of the war, had not yet succumbed to the politically correct revisionism of the Lost Cause.
The book goes on to illustrate how the Union victory in America, helped serve as a catalyst for democratic reform in Britain...hmmm.
And yet, the memory of the war had been forgotten at that point in history.
“I don’t want to call it a conspiracy to ignore the role of Blacks both above and below the Mason-Dixon line, but it was definitely a tendency that began around 1910" - Ed Bearrs
If you have forgotten part of the war, then you cannot claim to know said war.
The revisionism of history began in 1865, when the carpetbaggers came down South.
Says who?...there were still people alive at the time who lived through the period.
Yeah, and guess what was going on in 1910?...the big reconciliation push, when Northerners and Southerners sat down and decided to unite over the issue of race. That was a period of time when race relations were at their worst throughout the country, and the Lost Cause Myth appealed equally to all whites.
James Loewen (another Southern author) discusses this in detail in "Lies Across America".
And yet you continue this hopeless charade, hoping that you will eventually find something to be able to say once and for all that it was about slavery.
No dude they didn't. The secession declarations are very clear. LOL....I don't need to find it, it's right there in the official documents of Southern states, which are easily researched.
Also, my last posted source is from a FOREIGN history book, so you can't blame that summation on "Yankee propaganda", and "history is always written by the victors".
Isn't it awesome that the uneducated, racist spammers are reduced to COMPLETELY IGNORING their own Cornerstone Speech and Mississippi, Texas, Georgia, and SC declarations of secession and relying solely on Charles freaking Dickens(!!!) and a self-serving, second-hand JULY 1864 quote from Jeff Davis? Can you imagine anything less persuasive?
Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
It's easy to know why the South started the war---THEY WROTE IT DOWN AT THE TIME. All anyone has to do is read their words!
Lincon did bring the tax up like hell for the south only liek 2% of them some fought in the civil war of the south hade slaves what ddi the other fights for?
the moust of thos things you take up out the thing whit tax
fact is some reasons the south lost are these: they were poorly trained, poorly equipped, and couldnt stand up to the numbers of the Union, say what you want but those three things contributed to the wars outcome
The facts are the Confederate Armies out numbered 4 to 1, poorly equipped, out fought the Federals for four years and won most of the major battles.
The reason the south lost was because Robert E. Lee refused to make war against unarmed civilians and raid northern communities, but the federal bastards had no problem burning farms, raping women both black and white, destroying the infrastructure of the South. Lee could have done the same thing early in the war.
The principle for which we contend is bound to reassert itself, though it may be at another time and in another form."
"The withdrawal of a State from a league has no revolutionary or insurrectionary characteristic. The government of the State remains unchanged as to all internal affairs. It is only its external or confederate relations that are altered. To term this action of a Sovereign a 'rebellion is a gross abuse of language."
Many Southerners didn't need to be trained, having grown up on the land around animals and hunting their own food. By contrast, the Union army was incompetent at best.
@WhitePrideWorldWi100 Shame on you. Its people like you that do immeasurable harm to the memory of those who fought and died for the Southern states during the war.
I'll give you a hint, my great great grandfather was not fighting for slavery, white power, national socialism or whatever other fucked up racist ideology you try to assign it.
BTW Texas is now grumbling to succeed fr this current Federal Socialist Union for many of the same reasons the Southern States actually did in '61. The fast that we're even having said discussion shows HOW DISSATIFIED we as a population are in this current INCOMPETENT OUT OF HIS SWIM LANE socialist community activist race divding KENYAN president. There are many people right now in 2009 that wish to part company with this federal government. So what are you saying? He's 1/2 black so what?
mister numbers man ur wrong. this is not a LIBERAL feel good point of view. It is NOT RELATIVE. All states have the right to succession as any power not SPECIFICALLY auth by our Constitution for the Fed Socialist Govt reserve such rights TO THE STATES. BTW Jeff was ELECTED President in 1861 after leaving the Senate. So again get a fact check. And there were TERM LIMITS to its reps. U telling me u think thats not a good idea? pelosi et al have been in HouseSenate for decades. Boo 4 them
General Lee surrendered, Longstreet had a better idea for the battle at Gettysburgh which was Rejected by Lee.. And furthermore, Stonewall Jackson was the hero....
well i hope succession isnt used to get this nation away from homosexual/lesbian/atheistic federalism. our states need to Constitutionally challenge the unrealistic immoral illegal size and power of the current federal govt. our Confederacy had term limits for the President, both houses of Congress and limits on the power of judges/justices. again read the full consitution of the Confideracy and the vision our great God fearing leaders had. the general pop is voicing their opposition. Great!
@kumasie01 Yes but who elected your politicians and who authorized them to implement their constitution? The man on the street or the Rich plantation owners? Tell me just what was so great about the Confederacy? Did you know some of the Confederacy states threaten to secede from the Confederacy because they did not trust their non elected President.
the federally miseducated navyboy still refers to this conflict as a civil war. how i hate to educate gov't school lads. it was a war between the states..for states rights and to stop the illegal tresspasses of mister illiterate lincoln as that villian ursurped the Consititution..much like ob today. a civil war are two or more groups fighting for control of the SAME land. ours was a war of succession..hence the war of the states. so go home little federalist and get ur free stimulus money.
@kumasie01 from a southern point of view it was not a civil war. From a Northern point of view it was because they believed the south did not have the right to secede and therefore still belonged within the Union. It's all a matter of who's interpretation was correct. The same applies to the issue of state rights which really meant Rich plantation owners rights!

The lie, is that the war was not fought for the preservation of slave rights, by Southern states. You can't get around what those state's own secession declarations said about the reasons for secession, AT THE TIME OF THE WAR. After the war, Southerners started talking about states rights, which was nothing but a synonym for slave rights. While Southerners controlled US politics, they did everything in their power to suppress states rights...the ole Confederate Two-Step.

@JDBlessin Northerners (aka Yankees) owned slaves, too. Actually the second biggest slavery state was New York. Lincoln himself had slaves. So, cut the crap ! The South fought against a government poking around in states' businesses and imposing taxes and laws against the will of the people (much like Obama's administration - lol). Isn't that on what America was founded upon ? Just a question...

HAHA...I love the way CSA supporters just make up statements like "Northerners owned slaves too", because it sounds good, then adopt it as part of their politically-correct doctrine.
You can easily research the figures from the 1860 Census, which documents in detail, which states and territories had slave populations, and which didn't, AT THE TIME OF THE WAR, as opposed to a century before it, when all western nations were still involved in the practice.
UnionStatesHeritage 1 year ago
@Airman04061969
The reality, if you subscribe to the Confederate view, that US States are a collection of sovereign countries, is that Northern states (members of the original 13 Colonies) were among the first western "nations" to abolish slavery. They did so INDEPENDENTLY of the Federal Union. What part of that is so hard to understand?
Vermont abolished it before the Federal Union existed. Most states in the Midwest, like Minnesota, never had slavery to begin with.
UnionStatesHeritage 1 year ago
@UnionStatesHeritage Slavery existed long before the Federal Union existed as well, Robert E Less was pro-abolishionist himself as were many of the northern southerners, just in stages over several decades to avoid mass anarchy and backlash. Slavery was on the way out the door regardless of how it was to happen. 1860's or like in Brazil the 1890's, technology and the modern age was trumping the centuries old practice.

Think, people! Victors write the history, and each side carries its own biases. The truth lies usually somewhere in the middle.
Neither side viewed slavery favorably. Had it been allowed to die its well-deserved death over time in an independent Confederacy, blacks could have transitioned gradually to free life instead of suffering under Reconstruction and as a group today would arguably be far better off today than their current sad plight, exceptions noted.
It is what it is.

I don't remember the exact numbers, but it was only around 3% of the population, in the southern states, who actually owned slaves. That number may be a bit higher, but just think of the elite few.

According to the seceded states own secession declarations...it most definitely was fought over slavery. States Rights is synonymous with slavery to Southern politicians of the day. Southern states spent decades trying to curtail states rights in the form of fugitive slave laws, and dictating the slave/free constitutions of newly formed states.
That percentage keeps getting lower. With so few people owning slaves how could almost HALF the pop. of the South consist of slaves?

The facts are the Confederate Armies out numbered 4 to 1, poorly equipped, out fought the Federals for four years and won most of the major battles.
The reason the south lost was because Robert E.

Lee could have done the same thing early in the war.
