No, I do not agree, because the North clearly did not support racist slavery to the same extent that the South did, and the presence of the abolitionist movement suggests that even Northern racists didn't want to go as far as to openly enslave races they considered inferior - unlike the slaveholders in the South.
I wonder why they hung all those blacks in New York City draft riots?
I wonder why Lincoln didn't free the slaves in the Northern held states of the Confederacy, in 1863, with the Emancipation Proclamation?
