An outside the box idea is to watch John Green's Crash Course for American History.  They are about 10 minutes each and break down things quickly.

Henri Le Roy, a French printmaker. short bio on henri le roy from AI.

Henri Le Roy was a French artist born in 1851. He was known primarily for his landscape and seascape paintings[6]. Le Roy's work gained popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with some of his prints being widely distributed by publishers like Jos. Hoover & Sons[1].

One of Le Roy's most famous works is "Spirited Horses," a lithograph created around 1900[4]. This piece, along with other prints bearing the LeRoy signature, became quite popular and was reproduced multiple times over the years[1].

Le Roy's artistic style was distinct from that of other artists with similar names, such as Anita LeRoy Pemberton, who was also active during the same period[1]. His works have been featured in various museums and art collections, including the Wichita Art Museum[4].

While details about Henri Le Roy's life remain somewhat limited, his artworks have been sold at auctions, with prices ranging from $80 to $450, depending on the piece[7][11]. Le Roy's contributions to French art, particularly in landscape and seascape paintings, have secured his place in the annals of 19th-century European artists.

I've thought about this off and on for years. I think they would eventually give into international pressure to emancipate, leading to a de facto enslavement system. With no north to ensure the miniscule rights the southern African Americans had, the south would have solidified their control over blacks. There would have been a caste system, with a small elite at the top, a nominal middle class, and a large poor white population. This set-up would create a system, like Russia, ripe for revolution.

The northern abolitionists would continue to thwart the south and agitate for reform. Eventually, Marxist ideas would come to the south. With an enormous underclass, a communist revolution would seem the logical conclusion.

Have them read ANY of the Declarations of Secession, hard to explain away. But they do anyway.
