Can the legacy of the Confederacy ever really be detached from horrors of slavery and its consequences?
Some will try to argue that the "glorious struggle" of the Civil War was fought NOT for slavery, but for states' rights. However, the specific right that the Southern states were fighting for was, in fact, the right to own slaves. The South only seceded when confronted with the pro-abolitionist President Lincoln. The wealthy aristocracy that made up the bulk of the Confederate government and of the officers in the Confederate army had a vested interested in maintaining slavery as it was slave labor that had made them wealthy in the first place. While it is true that the vast majority of the enlisted men in the Confederate Army didn't own slaves, and even true that most white Southerners were too poor to own slaves, this cannot mitigate the profit motive of those in command. Even if it is true that most white Southerners enlisted out of a desire to protect their families, property, and communities from Northern invaders, how can anyone reasonably ignore the CSA's legacy of slavery?
The Civil War was about slavery. Period. People argue that it was about states' rights, but what right were people fighting to protect? Slavery. Southern states seceded because Lincoln and the Republican Party were hostile to slavery.
Most Northern states had outlawed slavery years before the Civil War; however, some Union states did still allow slavery, and those states were not affected by the Emancipation Proclamation - which was, incidentally, issued during the war, taking effect in 1863 when the Union was not doing so well militarily. The Emancipation Proclamation was more a political rallying tool than an actual attempt at general abolition.
Lincoln was at best a mild abolitionist. He had worked prior to the Civil War to prevent slavery from spreading to the new western territories such as Kansas and Nebraska. The spread of slavery was much more of a hot button issue in the years leading up to the Civil War than was the abolition of existing slavery, which was generally not considered feasible by politicians. Abolitionist publications had been around for decades by the 1860s, but the southern economy was too entrenched in slavery to just give it up.
The Union was primarily fighting to preserve the complete nation. Not until the Emancipation Proclamation was the war made to be all about slavery, but slavery was clearly the cause of the conflict. After the war, Reconstruction-era (and later) Southerners developed the myth of the Lost Cause, the glorious and noble fight by the South to maintain states' rights and further individual independence from the federal government. Several books have been written on the Lost Cause and may be worth checking out.

protein shakes for teen girls?
if i'm trying to gain muscle with exercise for the army, are protein shakes an option? i dont want to bulk up like men do by drinking them along with weight-lifting.
i try to get as much protein in my diet as possible, but i think i may need a supplement eventually.
thanks for your help.
For a female, you do not need protein. You need cardio to make the 2 mile run.
Protein will make you bulk up. Small muscles can do a lot of push ups and sit ups when trained properly.
Good luck
