I wish we saw more of that in TV. I'm sick of the constant imbalance of presenting the North as the Great Saviour of Man and the South as the Devil. Like the Lincoln film; Does it mention that the freeing of slaves ony accounted for the slaves inthe south and any of his northern political buddies were allowed to keep their slaves? Or that Virginia rejoined the Union near the end of the war ut were granted the right to keep their slaves? The only reason there were more slaves in the south was because of climate. People should never think the south was so much more more racist or simply minded, but Hollywood does a great job making them look that way.

The Civil was was very little to do with human rights and very much to do with securing land for the Railroad, and that is the point of this show when it comes to bashing the North.
