Original Note:
The author of this tweet is Agnes Callard and she is an associate professor of Philosophy at the University of Chicago.

Roughly 25% of Southerners owned slaves. https://philosophy.uchicago.edu/faculty/a-callard https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aia/part2/2narr1.html https://www.yesmagazine.org/social-justice/2017/06/22/4-myths-about-slavery-we-should-stop-believing-now
