Reading 1790s Congressmen Argue In Favor of Slavery...

makes me sick. "The other parts of the Continent may bear them down by force of arms, but they [Southerners] will never suffer themselves to be divested of their property without a struggle." - James Jackson, (Anti-Federalist-GA) So much horribleness. What the hell was wrong with these people? I can't even begin, really, to voice the outrage, even in the privacy of my own mind. There just aren't words. It's just truly nauseating.
