Pretty sure you took this one cause you were too damn lazy to pick your own cotton.
They shouldn't have been so good at picking cotton.
They were fucking garbage at picking cotton and slave estates often did worse than tennant farming estates.
The only thing that made it worthwhile was that they were dirty cheap and no one gave a damn what you did with them.
It wouldn't have been economical without conscripting whites for security. Slavery needs subsidy.
You're kidding, but one of the explanations for slavery offered is that blacks were better suited (when it comes to immunity to disease and ability to withstand the climate) of the Southern US than whites were.
So much for the 'racism catch-all'.
Look man, just give me the keys to the GG time machine and I'll be happy to go let them know what colossal fucking mistake that was.
If you watch the video, despite many a shout about joggers, none of the attackers actually seem to be of the cotton picking persuasion.
