About this listen
Stan McLeod may not be one of the wealthiest landowners, but he is a banker and fairly well-off. He has been able to do a great job of taking care of his young wife, Susanna. Better yet, he has been given an opportunity to go to the United States. Granted, the notion of visiting such a barbaric land seems strange, but his employer wishes to expand, so Stan takes the opportunity. In the US, he raises a pair of children, and they see what the world can be like. Technically, they’re Southerners, but they have never been to the CSA.
So when his son is ready to go to college and his daughter is about to graduate from secondary school, Stan decides to go back to the CSA. Once there, he meets up with one of his oldest friends: Nathan Wellington. Having gotten married himself, Nathan is now one of the richest men in his state. He has assets all across the CSA, not to mention his investments in the Spanish Empire and all across the British colonies, going from Bombay to Arabia. He's a very, very rich man.
For his part, Stan has done well. He might not be able to match Nathan’s economic might, but this banker is pulling his family up the economic ladder. He thinks his beautiful daughter will be able to marry a fine young gentleman someday. His son will go off to college, and he’ll earn a degree before he joins a powerful firm and takes a lucrative position. Little by little, they will ascend the social hierarchy as any good family with fine breeding should be able to do.
But like everyone else in the Confederacy, Stan understands how dangerous it can be. Without his position, he could fall into debt slavery all too easily. The same could be true for his wife, son, and daughter. Then, for good or ill, a white family such as his could become an incredible status symbol. They might sell for huge sums of money—owning a white family as slaves would be an incredible sign of affluence and power.
It would be a shame if Stan was accused of embezzlement. It would be a shame if he was sacrificed to protect someone else in the company. It would be a shame if he lost everything, especially because he would have to depend on someone like Nathan to buy him, his wife, and his two children. That might be the only way they could stay together.
And if his family was purchased, how long would it take before the Wellingtons began to see this family as a group of actual slaves, human chattel to be trained, tamed, and used? His son is young and strong. He could make an excellent field slave. His daughter is beautiful with her long, wavy blonde hair and vividly bright blue eyes. There are so many men who’d enjoy using her. Stan and his wife have to better be careful. The CSA may claim to be one of the richest countries on the planet, but prosperity can be tenuous and brittle, especially when there’s so far to fall.
