The state of #Virginia held a secession convention to discuss the unfolding #CivilWar. Though it had fewer slaves than the first to leave, it voted to secede on #ThisDayInHistory in 1861. It subsequently joined the #Confederate States of America & hosted its capital of Richmond.

I am a cishet white male Southerner of the Baby Boomer generation. I live in Mississippi; my father was born here; my mother was born in Louisiana; I was born in Alabama.

I endorse every word of this Virginian's quoted message about the #Confederate States of America. It was about #slavery, full stop.

Damn the #Confederacy to the bottom of Hell forever.
