Here is a powerful presentation on the truth about the Confederacy in the USA. The North won the war but the South won the peace.
(22) The Truth About the Confederacy in the United States (FULL Version) - YouTube
A conference presented by Jeffery Robinson, the ACLU’s top racial justice expert. He discusses the dark history of Confederate symbols across the country and outlines what we can do to learn from our past and combat systemic racism.
In the same historical vein check the work of James W. Loewen:
"Lies Across America: What Our Historic Sites Get Wrong,"
"Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong,"
"Sundown Towns: A Hidden Dimension of American Racism."
