David Blight has that 'extra something', an indefinable that we sometimes term 'genius'. He seems to be able - in fact he does - communicate complex themes simultaneously yet, apparently, effortlessly. And he does it with humour!😀✊

YES... Dr. Blight is Right.... The South was not fighting 'For Slavery'... They were fighting for their 'Way of Life" and their 'Sovereign Rights' to have 'Independence' from a 'Central Government' because every Plantation Owner was the 'Lord of His Land' and decided his own Laws, versus an elected body that would decide what you could do and can't do... Can you imagine thousands of independent 'City-States' with every Land Owner being a Mayor of his State... No Supreme Court, No Washington DC, No Federal Reserve, No Congress, No Constitution... No Democracy..!! This was not a War over Slavery... This is a War about 'Independence versus Union'... An elected 'King' versus an inherited 'King"... This was the Old European Model vs the New American Ideal...!!

Dr. Blight was "Mr. Blight" when he was my Civil War High School teacher in 1977-78 at Flint Northern High School. He was, of course, the MOST popular teacher at school, and it was his last year teaching High School, as he went on the earn his PhD and move-on to his Collegiate Career and Author of Books.... A young "Mr. Blight" had a beard and taught like 'John Keating' of Dead Poets Society fame... He would turn off the lights and gave amazing war 'reenactments' and attributed his passion to his belief that he actually lived and experienced the Civil War in a previous life... Something that probably is not known, as he has learned to 'Tone-Down' his truth and 'Stay Between the Lines"... Anyway, he was, like many students would agree, my #1 High School Teacher... And his annual 'Gettysburg Field Trip' was a MUST... for it still is etched in my mind..... It is an amazing memory..!!

Blight somehow overlooks the tragedy of Woodrow Wilson, whose hatred for Imperialism was coupled with a disdain for American blacks. Hence black soldiers role in this war for democracy was reduced to something only marginally better than that of the slaves who served their masters in the Confederate army. Perhaps in memory of the huge numbers of freed slaves Mr. Lincoln incorporated into the Union Army. and who were a necessary eventually for the Union victory.

Lincoln was NOT the "Great Emancipator" that most people believe he is... He campaigned for President of the USA on a platform that supported the Southern States Rights for maintaining Slavery, and only wanted to restrict future States from deciding "Free or Slave"... This was an attempt to appease the South to avoid succession. He only won the election because the Southern Democrats split their vote. Lincoln won win zero Southern States, which was why the South decided to leave the Union. His 'Gettysburg Address" came at the end of the Civil War, as a tactical attempt to encourage slaves to join the Northern Army, as many northern boys were becoming very reluctant to joining this horrid and bloody war. Lincoln supported sending slaves back to Africa (Liberia) as well as to establishing a slave colony in Panama, to dig the canal that was needed. In my opinion, he should have allowed the CSA to leave the Union peacefully, avoided this tragic war, and focused on a 'Political Solution' that would have reunited the two countries after resolving the issues of 'Slavery & States Rights'...

The ancient soldier on the Charleston Confederate memorial David Blight showed is Greek. That round shied was a Greek, being specifically the "hoplon" which gave us the word "hoplite" commonly used for ancient Greek spear-armed soldiers.

Having watched his Yale lectures and several lectures at events such as these, I noticed he often plays dumb like this - a pastime my personal professors loved to employ to keep us wondering and promote our own intellectual curiosity so that the search for truth and knowledge continues. I could be wrong, but something I just began picking up on.

I’m up to the 11th lecture, the secession of the Deep South. The most illuminating thing is how the history of the previous 20 years set the table for the war. I had already learned about most of the elements and had learned vaguely that they were “among the causes”, but exactly how they all related to the mood and the politics was murky to me. Like a good rug, professor Blight really ties the history together.

Southern symbols and the lost Cause. I can understand the effects the literature could have on peoples. I would question how far down would that affect go in society. The well educated elite yes. Teachers academics yes. Historians and their students yes. The general public no. The vast majority of people reading about the Civil War are interested in the military aspects and that’s what they read about. The whys and wherefores of the results not so much. I would also say for the common man what you’re actually fighting for is not a conscious thing it’s the immediate thing at hand. Survival, self-respect, others perception or whatever makes you feel good about what you’re doing. Fighting to keep their slaves. Big conversation i’m not about to get into. But let’s turn the coin over. What was the north fighting for? Considering slavery was still on the table until January 1863 I would say they were fighting to maintain the union. Not so much a slave liberation Army.

You are confusing imagination with memory, which is a classic tendency in the era of electrical mass communication since both interior senses are constructed out of phantasmé. But the "memory booms" of the age of electrical communication since the Civil War are primarily imagination presented as memory, and nearly all of them are tainted by the "uniformity principle fallacy" that the present is somehow the key to the past. The problem with this is that under its influence nothing in the past makes sense, and more significantly nothing in the present actually does either. While it may have an explanation, the explanation can't make sense.

There were many northern 'Yankees' that did not hate the South... Michigan was an 'Agricultural State', and like many northern states, was split on the issue of slavery, but politically forced to take the 'Northern-Side'... The Civil War was actually a power struggle between the New England States, that had 'Domestic Slaves' and the Southern States, that had 'Plantation Slaves'. Remember, George Washington owned some 350 slaves, and inherited 16 slaves from his father when he was just 12 years old. Jefferson, and most of our 'Founding Fathers' owned slaves... By the 1860's it was considered an 'Unfair Advantage' for southern states compete with the north using slave labor, but permissible for the northern states to own servants, nurses, cooks, maids, etc... The 'Midwestern States' had no choice but to side with the North, so many left and joined the CSA and the fight for independence from New England. They reluctantly joined the American Revolution, on the guarantee that they could secede, and then got double-crossed, because they didn't get that promise in writing.
