@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes It was easy to have those revolutionary values when your economy did not rely on slavery. What of Virginia, whose sons penned these Liberty documents: Declaration, Constitution, Bill of Rights? — PolitiTweet.org
Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones
@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes Some states did. Again, those with very small Black populations and that did not rely on slavery. But what does this tell us? Slavery was always an economic institution. Those that kept it are those states where the economy most heavily depended. — PolitiTweet.org

@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes I don't believe you even know what you're arguing at this point. You just need to believe in American exceptionalism, which really is a strange thing for a historian. — PolitiTweet.org

@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes If you're going to make some global case about abolition based in individual states with low stakes in slavery, then you have to compare states in the US to states, provinces, regions in other countries. You can't compare state abolition in the US to national abolition elsewhere. — PolitiTweet.org

@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes Slavery was codified by the federal government with the Fugitive Slave Act, for instance. And by the time an anti-slavery president was elected and the South seceded, nearly every other NATION in the Americas had already abolished slavery. — PolitiTweet.org
Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones
@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes One, the states that abolished slavery were the ones that were the least reliant on slavery! And even then, it was often gradual abolition, like in New York, meaning slavery lasted another six decades. Also, completely perplexed by what argument you are now making? — PolitiTweet.org

@JWil64 @Abhmin I find it fascinating how people immediately go to insults on here. Like, would you talk to a stranger like that in real life? Anyway, I scroll on here all the time and there can be three tweets on my screen at anytime during the scroll but I'm not reading them all. — PolitiTweet.org

@RaymondLavertue @ChristopherRust @hulu @Shoshana_Guy @RogerRossWill @caitlinroper @Oprah @nytimes Why would it need to be nationally codified? The United STATES was founded as a confederation of individual states. Also, you might want to study some Supreme Court cases. — PolitiTweet.org
