[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Not the same thing at all. There was much in the antebellum South that was not dominated by slavery. And, FWIW, hoop skirts were also worn in the North. Could you share more on the bolded please? Curious to know what you mean.[/quote] While 25% of Southerners owned slaves (and that is too many, of course), 75% did NOT own slaves. Of course, the large plantations depended on slavery, but many other people did not. Slavery was outrageous and troubling, but it was not the ONLY thing in the South. [/quote] The 75% that did not own slaves also didn't live in plantations and live lavishly. So, bad example.[/quote]
