racism was thier SOLE mission, beliefs, of course it was also in the north. but it fuel thier economy in thier south through segregaiton and slavery. the problem was not ELIMINATING the remaining confederacy strongholds.
*Their.
Segregation was common across across the whole country. This whole country has always been racist. My point was this wasn't a north south issue. It is the heart of America. What does it matter if we give people freedom and still starve them? What good is freedom if you have no home? What good is freedom if you're still burning them? This is wasn't progress in the north, it was trying to feign righteousness. America, all of it, is a racist country.
