Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its corner–stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery — subordination to the superior race — is his natural and normal condition.

^the vice-president of the CSA. Say what you want about the civil war having little to do with slavery, but when you look into the reasoning and basis that caused these people to hate Nothern domination, racism is found more often than not. Lincoln may have toned down the call for the end to slavery, but it was his ultimate goal, and the South knew it.
