Features:
Actually, their ancestors DIDN'T start out in the same socio-economic situation as everybody else. In fact, there isn't even a standard starting point for anyone. Each continent had different natural resources, and those people who happened to be lucky enough to be born on continents with better and more plentiful resources became more prosperous. The only reason white people became the most prosperous race is because Europe had better natural resources than any other continent on Earth (though Asia was a close second). The book Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond reveals the absurdity of racial meritocracy.
Also, legal rights mean nothing if those in power still want to keep you down. The book The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander exposes how white politicians have used all sorts of creative and underhanded methods to keep black people uneducated and poor, despite the passage of apparent equal rights in the legal system.
So for southern recipes, here is Southern Living's recipe website. This magazine is very very popular and a lot of home recipes are from here.

Also, many of the smaller bookstores and gift shops have great southern cookbooks. One of my favorites is Alabama Historic restaurant recipes.

Here is the main text used in an Alabama history class I took at UA.
Calling all Cooks.
This book?
And after just finishing An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States, much less fervently. Actually, I've mainly done it for the BBQ for quite a few years now.
And even still, that doesn't justify supporting/honoring the Confederacy. Though the United States committed genocide against the Native Americans, Southerners still participated in that genocide, still fought a war to own slaves, and then lost that war. And today is a state holiday in honor of the man that led that failed rebellion.
All that view and practice does is turns out more hardened criminals.
Probably the seminal work on the subject:
