“while completely ignoring the fact that the actual president of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis said the exact opposite of Stephens”
What did Jefferson Davis have to say about it?
“An estimated two slave ships per month were being built and outfitted in NYC well into the 19th century”
Who estimated this?
I’ve already posted what Davis said about it at least a dozen times - as you well know.
As for 2 slave ships per month from NYC, read Complicity: How the North Promoted, Prolonged and Profited from Slavery. It was a best seller a few years ago.
