Shawn Hudson @stludson.bsky.social · 08/09/2026This is one of the things I try to emphasize in US history over and over. Slavery was a choice. Compromising with the South over and over as they whined and complained was a choice. Allowing Jim Crow was a choice. There were always alternatives, it didn't need "modern" views, they were always there. 27116
