Not really true. The states that advanced the most economically were states where slavery was outlawed (the north) and where the worst forms of segregation did not take root.

Dark the better question is… in states where slavery remained the longest, how stark are the divides between white people and black people on average, not how rich is a rich white Person in Georgia versus one in New York….
