No, the statuary makes all the difference. Again, the South -- not the North -- maintains monuments to this day to honor those who fought to defend the right of white people to own black people, e.g., <http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pines/3093/index.html>. That is fundamentally debased behavior. It is ... uncivilized.
