[quote=Anonymous]They never pivoted post civil war and post desegregation economically or socially. I have a home in Montgomery al which was wealthy from slave sales and cotton. Downtown there is a massive fountain where slave auctions were held. They couldn’t find their footing after the civil war so they never grew. There was also significant white flight post desegregation in the 60s and homes were literally abandoned as to not have to send their kids to schools with black children. Everyone here mostly either works for the state government, Air Force base or a handful of small universities and a Hyundai plant. [/quote]
