I read your piece. There are many folks (Heritage, etc.) who say that the Constitution never explicitly endorsed slavery. As you must know, Art. I and Art. v carved out explicit “You can’t do that[s]” with respect to the importation of people. Just curious if you would reply.

I recommend Sean Wilentz's book No Property In Man, which has a comprehensive review of what the Constitution did & did not do regarding slavery, how, & why.
