But sadly yeah, Texas actually had one of the WORST state constitutions when then joined the Confederacy. It includes such jolly dictates as...
-All black citizens needed to leave Texas or voluntarily become slaves.
-It was illegal to teach a slave literacy.
-It was illegal to free your slaves without the express permission from the governer.
That's just what I can recall off the top of my head.
