"The 1860 census counted nearly 8000, a number exceeding that of most of the confederate states." Do you mean free blacks?

Come April, we celebrate the 150th of the end of the Civil War. You watch. DC will say/do nothing or almost nothing. It hasn’t for the War of 1812, either.

Do you mean free blacks? Yes. If you've read Huckleberry Finn, you'll remember that Jim's goal was to get to Cairo, Illinois, where he would be free.
