Your statement is false.
Blacks who fought for the South were given their freedom in return for them volunteering.
None of them fought as slaves, and none of them were forced to fight.
It may be hard for some people to grasp, but it was THEIR culture, too. And there were lots of black slave OWNERS.

Yes there was black slave owners but in all the South? No. Maybe certain parts of Louisiana where free black persons could afford it.
If they were given freedom in exchange for fighting for the Confederacy that still doesn’t take away my point blacks were slaves and if their owner told them to fight with him that’s what they did. And as slaves they were uneducated and unaware what their owners fought for.
Slave owners had absolute power over their human property.
