I find it impossible to say "Confederales" without smiling.

There's a song in there somewhere.
Think Pancho and Lefty by Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard.

Written by Townes Van Zandt and done by EmmyLou Harris a few years before. Great song.

Yeah I know, after I posted the video I realized I should have said covered by Nelson & Haggard.

Interesting video. I knew some Southerners fled the US after the CW and many of them came back. I would of thought that the ones that went to Brazil just assimilated into the local society. I am surprised that at least some kept their roots. I imagine they can't just marry into each others families otherwise there would be some less then optimal genetic results.
How their views pan out in a multiracial country where a good portion of the Brazilian population has strong African roots is interesting. Santa Barbra, Brazil might be a white enclave so maybe it works out. Interracial marriage and outof wedlock births is not unknown in Brazil so good luck to the Confederales.
