I think the reason you hear anger is the very assumption that we(those 
of a Southern mindset) must come north.  I think the emphasis has been 
on what the north wants/thinks/believes to be true for 150 years, and it 
is now time to swing the balance back to the truth as viewed by the 
South.  Now, a whole lot more people live in the South than even 50 
years ago, and people have a voice that no longer can be held back by 
publishers and other media.  The South has already risen again, and it's 
the Yankees/Gerue's<g> that are still in denial! (see other post)
