That segregation, was that in the entire USA? How was it introduced for the entire USA when the North fought for the freedom of the black population?
Don't get it twisted. There were plenty of people who were against slavery but still deeply racist. There was a big movement among abolitionists to send all the black folks back to Africa. That's how Liberia was founded.
Yep, a lot of folks were racist and just pro-union.
