The heritage CLEARLY was and IS hatred. There were slaves in the north also.
Blacks could vote in five northern states in 1860. The slave power was determined to get away from any combination that could elect a president publicly opposed to slavery.

Walt, doesn't slavery still exist in the north today? It would seem that cities like Baltimore, New York and many others in the north continue to hold down their black population.
