Answer:
Who was Fitzhugh?
George Fitzhugh served as a political intellectual for the South and authored two significant works: Sociology for the South and Cannibals All! which promoted pro-slavery ideas.
Which of Fitzhugh’s points did you find most unsettling?
Among the many controversial points raised by George Fitzhugh, the one that I find most troubling is:
'It is the responsibility of society to protect the weak;' however, effective protection requires the exertion of control; thus, 'It is society's duty to enslave the weak.'
Explanation:
This quote from Cannibals All! illustrates Fitzhugh's strong pro-slavery stance. I personally find this perspective disturbing because every individual, regardless of their race, should have the opportunity to lead an independent life, yet he deemed individuals inferior based solely on skin color.
