I have vague memories of a book I once bounced off of because it was about the post-Civil War period and the narrative seemed to state that the angry ex-slave was Too Angry and the forgiving ex-slave made the Right Choice.

That is allergenic and yet still so culturally popular. Do some teshuvah, then we can talk!
