I own a vintage 5th/6th grade textbook: “A School History of Texas,” c. 1913. Revisionist history says the Civil War was about “States Rights.” Check it out. In 1913 white folk weren’t embarrassed abt slavery yet. #WCT #weirdchristiantwitter 1/5 So, here are a few pages from the textbook. Note on page 211: “the Northern states, by their attacks on slavery, had violated the constitution.... the power of the government was now being used to oppress the slave states.” Slavery was the issue. 2/5
