Would the black ones like to be slaves again?
Maybe history matters, then.
“Would the black ones like to be slaves again?”
I don’t think they ever would have been slaves in Wisconsin. This “America had slaves” stuff obscures the fact very few Americans ever had slaves, slavery was illegal in the North, and many of the Founding Fathers hated slavery.
Never mind that lots of people from Wisconsin and the North fought and died, under Lincoln, to end slavery.
