There is a long tradition of counterfactual speculation about the alternative courses American history would have taken had the South won the Civil War. This essay traces counterfactual narratives of slave emancipation from a classic 1933 essay by Winston Churchill to a 2004 mockumentary by filmmaker Kevin Willmott
