Lace on Race sez:

White supremacy has always been all about the Benjamins.

From Jamar Tisby:

Someone (still) needs to hear this:
The Civil War was about slavery…and the money that the elite made through the economic exploitation of the enslaved.

White Mississippi leaders knew the Civil War was about slavery when they seceded in January 1861, but plenty of people today deny the very words of the Confederates.

Don’t overlook the invocation given at the convention where white Mississippi lawmakers agreed to secede from the Union. White Christians colluded in the perpetuation of race-based chattel slavery. That “institution”…it’s peculiar…it’s slavery.

From the 1861 Mississippi Articles of Secession…
