A new U.S. Constitution should have been enacted and ratified, following the Civil War, to redress the many deficient provisions in the old one (our current one) that was promulgated to inculcate slavery and to deprive the black man of citizenship. That a new Constitution was not enacted and ratified speaks to the commonality of perspectives of the majority of the northern and southern whites respecting the inherent inferiority of the black man and of their common 'white' supremacists' responsibility to repress the black man, regardless of their political party or mode of economic development, and regardless of law: statutory, decisional, ecclesiastical.
