[@nm425]

Thank you for this very informative video.

[@barbarashelmire8327]

Loved being there! Was also at Danville! Such rich history!❤

[@thomasmccabe8455]

There is also a “Little White House of The Confederacy” in Montgomery, Al. where JD took office and lived before the Capitol was moved to Richmond.

[@Rexag]

Yes sir.... worth a stop if you should travel near.

[@vrj40]

I'm a Virginia native and had a colleague tell me recently that Virginia is not a part of the South. 😂 What are they teaching in schools? She must be a newcomer to the state? I had to inform her that Virginia was the seat of the Confederacy.

Jefferson Davis was my great great great uncle.

[@kennethterry8196]

Congratulations. That’s pretty neat.

I'm 22 from Canada and I've been learning all about him. He's awesome. He was named after Thomas Jefferson. The confederates were the real Americans.

[@claud1961]

An interesting look at a piece of history. Davis had an unenviable task, fighting not only the Union but many of his own constituents as well. Lost Cause indeed! They could never come together as a unified nation because State Rights were more important than victory! One state, I forget but I think it was South Carolina, tried to succeed from the Confederacy over an imposed draft! The last bit of European aristocracy died with it. Good riddance, really, but we love to romanticize it. My fun fact is Davis was held without trial for two years. Apparently, the Federal Government was afraid the Supreme Court would rule that individual states did have the right to succeed!

[@diwi1942]

Secede

[@wpc9163]

It's simply not the case that plutocracy (government of, for, by the rich) died with the Confederacy. Moreover, the antebellum South had a growing industrialist class. Those Southern industrialists only grew in power during the war, due to the Confederacy having been forced to embark on its own industrial revolution. Therefore, it can't be ruled out that the planter aristocracy would've died a natural death in a South that had won the war. A confederation is by definition a voluntary association of sovereign states. The Confederate government could've blocked the "secession" of a state only by acting in direct violation of the CS Constitution, a document that specifically recognized the "sovereign and independent" character of the individual member states. It wasn't uncommon for factions within the individual Confederate states to either argue for leaving the Confederacy or to threaten leaving the Confederacy. I've never come across any evidence of a secession convention having taken place in any of the member states, however. If memory serves, all of the Confederate state supreme courts backed the Davis administration's conscription policy.

[@dmana3172]

Imagined if the Confederate had won, we would had been much better off than the Federal Government which were the Union. Yes, slavery were preserved during that time, but it would had been up to Confederate states to abolish slavery and they would had done that already today. The only different is, no IRS, no federal laws or big government. Only small government. I wished the confederate had won the civil war. How about you?

[@andygossard4293]

We should write a book, w 2 opposing visions. I think it would've been catastrophe. the South might've been cut off from trade, no cotton to the north, the banking systems would've failed. So it would've decimated the south longer than the result of the war did. -which was terrible.

[@oldblackstock2499]

@ Wayne Wallace, I agree.

[@nicholascrowder740]

I agree, wish the south had won the war for independence.

I always thought it was because they might have lost what they won in the war. I do not believe the question of secession has really ever been settled. But all is well.

In which room did he keep his "drag" ?!? 😅 #FJD

[@locdizzle5666]

Fun note when he got caught in GA he was dressed in womans clothing.

[@nicholascrowder740]

Davis was sick at the time. Leaving Richmond wasn't enough time to pack proper clothing. His wife gave him that to keep warm.

[@redlantern3371]

And it wasn't "a woman's dress" as noted in propaganda papers. It was actually a raincoat that had been worn back then by women and men alike. When Sec of War Stanton demanded to have the "dress" that JD was captured in sent to him for his own personal collection of memorabilia, he saw that the "dress" was actually an overcoat. Stanton refused to allow it to be exibited to the public. It would expose the lie and propaganda that JD had been captured wearing a womans dress.

[@waynesigmon5628]

​@@redlantern3371yeah I seen the raincoat another video I just wish these people would tell the truth about history
