General George Pickett, a Confederate officer during the American Civil War, fought for the Confederacy, which was established to preserve the institution of slavery. While his personal views on slavery are less documented, he served in an army that sought to maintain a society built on slave labor. Therefore, by aligning with the Confederacy, he effectively supported the cause that defended slavery.
