Historical Hypocrisy: The Confederacy's Weird Stance on "Individual Rights"

from Ridiculous History · host iHeartPodcasts

While the Confederacy often portrayed itself as a champion of certain individual rights-- not applied to enslaved people, of course-- it didn't always practice what it preached. In today's episode, the guys explore how factions of the Confederate government used the chaos of war to confiscate all sorts of property and then, through a web of corruption, made themselves wealthy in the process.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
