4. A great many Southerners wanted to see the slaves emancipated--Jefferson for one. But they recognized that there had to be careful preparation for the change in status. The fact is that that preparation was never made; and the reasoning behind the recognition of the need for that preparation has surely been vindicated by the ongoing racial conflicts, 152 years after emancipation.
