Black Confederates
This course exposes an issue that is never discussed in any public space, United States slaves that defended the slave system. You will learn what these people were thinking. Black people had a variety of reasons for defending the Confederate States. This course is an attempt to move beyond judgment of slave soldiers for the slave states. You will see the world from the eyes of slave soldiers for the confederacy as well as free southern black people who owned slaves themselves. The Black Confederacy course is important because we still have people who serve systems that destroy them as they serve.
