Correction 1865 - Slavery amended not abolished!

Slavery was not abolished! It was made conditional on criminal status rather than race.
I usta irritate students from texas
by demonstrating that the fight at the Alamo was at least as interpretable as a battle to manumit Travis’ slave—the only man alive inside the Alamo on March 7, 1836, who was also alive inside the Alamo on March 6, 1836—as it was to ’win’ independence for Texas. Mexico had outlawed slavery in 1828. But the Texans wanted to maintain in a slave-status.
Yeah, I did it on purpose.
Like reminding complacent Okie children of the Greenwood race riots in Tulsa, in 1921.
It’s interesting: both in Louisiana and Oklahoma, anyway, when you mention race riots, the folks picture BLACK folks rioting—as in SouthCentral LA— but not whites—who have traditionally been the oppressors.
