I don't think Jasper was a racist. I'm sure since he was from the south that Jasper was raised with certain morals and beliefs. But, slaves were usually owned by large plantation owners and very wealthy people. I'm sure Jasper or any of his family owned slaves. When the war started Jasper decided to join the military...and since he was from the south, he joined the Southern Army. And the north weren't as innocent and pure as what some of you might think. The Northern Army devastated the South...destroying virtually anything in their path....and stealing anything they thought valuable. So, many Southerners who never owned a slaved were murdered, stolen from...and usually left homeless.
