I watched the PBS program," Slavery by Another Name" on PBS last night. Needless to say, Sweet Home Alabama was featured prominently. It's no secret the present day South was built by forced black labor. IMHO, it's still a crime to be black in Alabama.

As for the help serving mint juleps, it's just a good thing they weren't serving that tasty chocolate pie!
