They are the hardest employers of white workmen, and they expect to get as much labor from a slave as they have forced from the necessities of white men. No system of slavery in the world, that we have any knowledge of, is as harsh, inhuman and cruel as that which prevails in the Yankee merchant marine. The scenes of horror that are of constant occurrence in Yankee vessels have caused the whole civilized world to stand aghast. For years before the present rupture, the English journals were filled with accounts of cruelties and murders practiced upon American seamen in the various lines of packets and freight ships trading between the North and England.

  • Louisiana's Cultural Regions
    Section3 Louisiana’s Cultural Regions As you read, look for: • the similarities and differences among Louisiana’s cultural regions, and • vocabulary terms region, upland South, urban, and rural. Visiting the state’s many festivals is one way to study the elements of Louisiana’s culture. A map shows these elements in a different way. The Louisiana Depart- ment of Culture, Recreation and Tourism divides the state into five regions. A region is an area defined by similar features. Physical regions include common climate and landforms. Cultural regions include similar elements of culture such as ethnic heritage, language, religion, food, music, or recreation. Each of Louisiana’s five cultural regions, shown in Map 1, has cultural ties that makes it different in some ways from the rest of the state. Map 1 Louisiana’s Cultural Regions Map Skill: In which cultural region do you live? Top: An Acadian homestead is one of the attractions at Longfellow-Evangeline State Commemorative Area in St. Martinville. Section 3 Louisiana’s Cultural Regions 17 Sportsman’s Paradise Region This region’s label was chosen because of the many lakes, rolling hills, and forests in northern Louisiana that offer abundant outdoor recreation for residents and visitors. Fishing and hunting have been a part of life here for generations. Bass fishing tournaments are big business on the lakes of the region. Newer sports like water-skiing and power-boat racing add a different kind of excitement. North Louisiana has more in common with the neighboring states of Missis- sippi, Alabama, and Georgia than with South Louisiana. A cultural anthropolo- gist uses the term upland South to describe this region.
