Watch the "mockumentary' film “Confederate States of America” which can be found on Netflix or YouTube.  I also provided the link.  This film is a fake documentary that mixes fact with fiction to creatively suggest what U.S. history and the current U.S. political economy might look like if the confederacy won the Civil War and slavery was still legal. Let me reiterate that this is a fake documentary created to imagine what life and our economy would be like if slavery still existed as a result of the Civil War being lost to the confederate army.
