A hundred years from now people might read of you and your doings and conclude that you were less than you thought you were also. From a petrie dish in a lab when you're fifteen or twenty is a good place to issue your own Proclamations.
Slavery has rotted every nation that had it...everyone. It isn't the only rot, but it's a big one. People are lousy things, they screw up enough without slavery, but with it they are doomed even more.
All that Southern Fried literature made the point that something essentialdied or was rotten in the South...and it wasn't on account of the rights of rich white men...it was because of the moral corruptrion that slavery inevitably brings. The South still sucks...why else would you be there, in your Diapers...in a petrie dish, lapping up agar agar.
