One of the most oft repeated black chattel slavery apologies from the outraged Lost Cause collectivists, against The Problem of Slavery in Christian America by Joel McDurmon, is the charge that all the woke confederates in the South know the real reason for Secession was tariffs, not slavery. Joel smashes this last idol of Lost Cause mythology into pieces so small they don’t even qualify as dust, in his trademark, fully-automatic-machine-gun-out-of-the ivory-tower-with-swag style we have come to love him for and power religionists of all stripes endure in vivid nightmares. Author: Dr. Joel McDurmon Narrator: Joe Salant
