I feel like the only answer to this question is to interfere, otherwise people will jump down your throat accusing of being a racist for not freeing the slaves. There's no evidence, even in fictional time shows/stories like this, to properly weigh or know the outcome with changing the timeline. Say Jefferson and Vixen free the slaves and end the Civil War early but cause a ripple effect that puts Hitler in power earlier allowing him to win WW2.

I think it was worth risking the timeline. I know technically it's in the past so already happened for the team but for Jax and the others it was real and it was now. I think if he didn't do anything and left them knowing he could have freed them then he would have regretted it.

The answer has to be no. As tempting as it would be, you cannot know what kind of changes would come about by doing something like that. Not worth the risk, to free half a dozen slaves. The Butterfly effect for doing such a thing could be catastrophic

Jon Dub

I would, they would be freed at some point why not sooner rather later. And the bit with the one guy didn't make it to where he needed to be, Jax completed that in his name so that bit in the timeline should be alright.

I guess I wouldn't do it, just because I would be more rational about it and think it already happened. It's kinda the same dillema from the Flash with flashpoint.

Marcelo Eloy Pierre Jorge

He was right to free the slaves.

Supermonaman

I said yes because in civil war slaves actually started rebeling maybe this is what sparked black people to start rebeling. I don't think they would rebel against the union because they offered them food and shelter.

zell

I believe he was right to do that, but I would also like to see some kind of change to the timeline as a result, even just a small one.

Kevin Bartelen

I believe he was definitely in the right to save those slaves no matter the consequences of the timeline. I do wonder how many of the confederate soldiers that were zombies didn't originally die, or did the folk at the plantation die earlier than they were meant to.

Cameron Mason

I think Jacks was spot on in freeing the slaves because who can say that that didn't happen somewhere also people being treated that way is an abomination and should be ended whatever the consequences
