As SF resident- I owe an apology to USA. Sorry folks, SF always exports it’s worst to higher office beyond, whether Newsom or Harris.
As Loury/McWhorter demonstrated, there is much to explore in any historical topic including slavery. I am curious about slavery as a national security risk. If an invasion along the southern USA border - including the coastal border in any year prior to 1865, one really could not logically expect slaves to defend with enthusiasm. Curious if England, France or Spain toyed with that possibility. Curious if northerners worried.
I am also curious about unintended consequences of privilege during slavery era. Did slaves incidentally avoid any lifestyle harm that non-slaved became vulnerable to? History is a rich mine with so much potential for learning. Tragic how the woke are denying society such potential enrichment.
