Searching for Black Confederates

"Searching for Black Confederates: The Civil War's Most Persistent Myth" by Historian Kevin Levin, is a thorough documentation and presentation of how Black, camp slaves, served as a central part of the army of Southern succession. But did not serve as soldiers, were not seen as soldiers, and the debate to allow them to be soldiers or not betrayed the project of the Confederacy- that the subjection of Black people to slavery, with White masters, was the God ordained order of things.
