Nothing, but the civil war was a thing for a reason and after the Union pussyfooted around during Reconstruction and didn't enforce educational standards the Southern states adopted a history that isn't exactly aligned with reality.

Grow up in a system where you're told you're better, black people are lucky to even exist in the USA, segregation is normal and good, and plantation life wasn't that bad for the slaves (comparable to just being regular farmers). Top it all off with the notion of "states rights" and that the Confederacy simply wanted to protect the idea of our founding fathers ... Well that's the result.
