If the Confederates had won the Civil War, what effect would it have on segregation in the remaining Union states? The states of Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware all had jim crow laws, would they be allowed to still do so when a third of the country split off for the pursuit of oppression against blacks? And if later on if the CSA collapses to racial/class riots between 1880-1920 and Arkansas, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia tried to rejoin the union, would they be allowed to introduce segregation as an alternative to slavery or would a more radical congress force states that wish to join to respect equality between races?
To me it depends a lot on how much losing the south radicalizes abolitionists.
