In class, we discussed the novice in archives and internet history. With this, we talked about archives detailing black confederates. While I knew there were black confederates, I was not aware there was such a large number. With this information, the theory that slaves were inferior would not hold up any longer. They fought along side confederate soldiers within the same capacity, so the archived letter proved that they were fully capable. Internet history has the capacity to educate and debunk any misconceptions.
