So, if you watched the intro, John mentions a guy named Mr. Fleming. That's Michael Fleming, my APUSH teacher at Jupiter High School in Florida right now. Mr. Fleming actually heard about how he was featured and called up John Green (don't ask me how he called him. I have no idea), and found out that a producer on the show was his old student, and this was an homage to what he taught that student. And yes, he's an old white Southerner and he acts like he's 182 years old. He's retiring this year, and he never had the retirement party he wanted (because of the pandemic), so I'd love it if all you APUSH students could comment something nice from wherever you are!! I'll be sending all the nice comments to him at the end of the year (shh, don't tell him)

Not an APUSH student and not even an American. My respects to all teachers world-wide for educating the youth, including my late grandfather a teacher himself. Teachers sadly are not appreciated as much as they should, considering their tremendous work in society. Hope Mr. Fleming has an enjoyable retirement.

Just because he and his teacher didn't know anything about state's rights doesn't mean they didn't and don't have any. If the state has no rights what was the 10th amendment to the Constitution referring to? A lot. But it was greatly reduced by the civil war. Slavery did need to be abolished and that did happen as a result of the Civil War but we did have a lot of bad effects from the war and the policy resulting from the war. One of those things is the lack of understanding of state's rights, which is only demonstrated by that part in this video(And your response to it).

Paris Ashcroft No, a State's Right to "What?". The Civil War was about Slavery, and if you claim it was about State's Rights I ask you "A state's right to do what, sir"? The answer is of course "A state's right to allow slavery". Thus the civil war was over Slavery and little else.
@pwashcroft10 жыл бұрын
Lyla Phillips ThoperSought I watched it again, thinking may have missed something and I agree with you that I did. When, in the video he quotes his teacher, he should have written it like you did Lyla. Your "What?" made me understand what the teacher was asking. He was asking about a state's right to have slavery. Though I would say for some individuals the war may have been about something else or more. But in this discussion that's not here nor there. I must have been caught up in my ax-grinding. Thank you for your correction.
@thoperSought10 жыл бұрын
***** "The idea that every state is a semi-independent unit free to govern itself with minimal federal, frankly, foreign, laws, was utterly discredited.” (1) foreign how, exactly? (2) “utterly” discredited is carrying it a bit far. certainly states’ rights lost a lot of ground, there, but states still have rights, and a _lot_ of people believe that’s very important. the problem is, states’ rights were a compromise in the first place. the articles of confederation didn’t work, and if you want to _blame_ the erosion of states’ rights on anything, how about blaming it on the failure of the articles of confederation? that’s where it _started._ further, you can’t have it both ways: either the states are sovereign, or the nation as a whole is sovereign. in the long run, one will always gain ground over the other, and when the constitution was first ratified, we chose which it would be.

There were a lot of reasons why the civil war occurred. The issue of slavery was just one of them. This man is being myopic to the extreme. Massachusetts almost seceded from the Union in 1835 because of the taxation that was being levied upon their exports the same thing they were getting ready to do to the South just before the beginning of the Civil War. Lincoln at actually ran on the concept of raising the tariffs on Goods leaving the South, mostly agricultural products, by 200%. As Lincoln had said he could care less whether or not slavery continued in the South don't you think that there was some reason why he didn't get not a single vote from the states that seceded from the Union? Slavery was not an issue, Lincoln, until the Gettysburg Address is the first time he ever brought it up. The reason he never brought it up before is because slavery was legal. And you can't kill people because they're doing something that's legal. The other problem is, Lincoln never had the Congress authorized him to make war

They were openly supporting the >expansion of slavery to any lands fit for large plantationsconsidered propertyforced people in northern states to capture and return escaped slaves to them

No matter how many times you trumpet 'state's rights' from the rooftops, it won't be any more true ever. Blacks didn't fight for the CSA, the south seceded because of the 1860 election and the republican party's platform of abolition, and slavery was illegal in the north. These are all as true as the earth is round, and I cannot even wrap my skull around how willfully ignorant southern/CSA apologists are.
