About the "civilization" of blacks is nonsense, because how could they become educated without educational institutions? Segregation then still fortunately persisted. As I already wrote, because instead of immediately building an industry in the South, the northerners decided to immediately free the slaves. As a result, they had nowhere to go, and they either went back to their owners or became bandits. And, yes, by the way, in the USA the equality of all WHITE people was proclaimed, well, initially at least ...

The source saying the British were involved reads like a tabloid article and links a website that no longer exists. Also, neither Booth or his fellow *American* plotters revealed any British involvement.

    I still haven’t forgiven the confederacy for destroying lots of family records during their invasion of Kentucky. There isn’t much records of my grandpas family pre civil war.

      Many Kentuckians helped the Confederacy invade. Culturally southern, they sympathized with the cause, however it was divided and many more helped the Unionists.
