@compoccia We've all been woefully miseducated, and particularly about the abolitionist and racially egalitarian North. It largely didn't exist. A good primer is this by historian Thomas Sugrue. https://t.co/OYLAuij341 — PolitiTweet.org

@compoccia Jim Crow was not mostly in the South. Most Northern states had official segregation policies, some barred Black people from moving there, others barred Black children from public schools, others Black people had to post a bond to live in the state. — PolitiTweet.org

@compoccia The North mostly did not want the expansion of slavery, true, but not necessarily for the altruistic reasons you'd like to believe. They wanted the West open to free WHITE settlers, did not want to sully it with Black people nor slavery. — PolitiTweet.org
