Dispelling the propaganda: Myth 1: The Confederacy fought to perpetuate the institution of slavery

**IMPORTANT LINKS**
*I do not own any of these songs, images, or videos*

This is the first video in my series I will entitle "Dispelling the propaganda". In this series I will present historical facts and evdence to debunk and prove false the false rumors and union propaganda accusations surrounding the Confederacy. In this first video I will debunk one of the oldest myths about the Confederacy, the myth that the Confederacy fought to protect the institution of slavery. This myth was first created at the beginning of the war by the union wordsmiths and propaganda artists and sadly had livd on through the last 150 years. But now, in recent years, the truth has come out and now I will do my share in debunking the union propaganda that has tarnished the good name of the Confederacy since 1861. Long live the Rebellion! -Deo Vindice

this would be a great video if it wasn't jammed up with the class warfare stuff. Rich men in the South did fight the damnyankees

I would like to point out that the confederate states constitution, was NEARLY identical to the United states constitution with the EXCEPTION of declaring it a RIGHT to own slaves. So to say that Slavery did NOT play a hand in it at all is nearly as obserd as the indication that it was the sole reason behind the war, or the souths motivations for sessession.

@Luigi84289 "Their whole agenda was aimed at making the US one Nation instead of a Confederation of Sovereign states and this they did with Reconstruction."

That's what the CONSTITUTION did. The US stopped being a Confederation and became a nation when the Constitution was ratified.

[KayBeeEee1983]

@Luigi84289 You need to read your history. The Mississippi Declaration of Causes details the perceived dangers to slavery.

"There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union...That we do not overstate the dangers to our institution, a reference to a few facts will sufficiently prove...We must either submit to degradation, and to the loss of property worth four billions of money, or we must secede from the Union framed by our fathers."

[KayBeeEee1983]

@Luigi84289 Of course there wasn't any legislation to end slavery. Lincoln and the Republicans made it clear that they had no power or intention to touch slavery in the southern states. They were determined to keep slavery out of the TERRITORIES though, and that's what angered slave owners.

The Corwin amendment wouldn't have protected slavery for all time. It would have just ensured that ONLY the states themselves could end slavery, not the federal government or any constitutional amendment.

@Luigi84289 That's hiring typing fast.

@illman8876 Slavery hurt the majority of whites in the south because it lowered wages and took that work away from white southerners. It was the same as higher illegals like the big corps do today who will work for nothing and hose up those jobs for life.

[Luigi84289]

@illman8876 No son states rights means the right of states to be Soveriegn Nations and conduct themselves as such. This is what the Radical Republicans were against. Their whole agenda was aimed at making the US one Nation instead of a Confederation of Sovereign states and this they did with Reconstruction. The EU is doing the same thing to Europe right now if England had slavery would that make it wrong for it to not want to maintain it's Sovereignty and deal with the problem?

[Luigi84289]

@KayBeeEee1983 There was no legislation on the table to end slavery. The Corwin Amendment which was on the table would have protected it for all time if the South had stayed and passed it. You need to read your history. Illinois ratified it Lincoln's state. It made no sense to secede before any move was made whatsoever if slavery was this important to the South. Lincoln even stated in his presidential speeches that it would not be abolished in the South all we had to do was wait.
