So I read CR1776 and DotA is on my list, and my understanding about Freedom of Religion as a means of solidifying whiteness is that it began in response to Bacon's Rebellion. Is that expanded on in DotA? Trying to decide if I should read that or the Bacon's Rebellion book (James D. Rice, Tales from a Revolution: Bacon’s Rebellion and the Transformation of Early America) referenced in CR1776 first.

Oh, also, y'all ever heard of Linconia? Despite schools ignoring it, many of us managed to learn that Lincoln's priority wasn't really freeing slaves, but rather keeping the union together. But even I had no idea, until the last few years, that the most popular version of abolishing slavery was to expel black people from the US.
