description: "Roger Atkinson Pryor was an American newspaper editor, lawyer, politician and judge. A journalist and U.S. Congressman from Virginia known as a Southern \"fire eater\" for his fiery oratory in favor of slavery and later secession from the United States and belligerence toward abolitionist colleagues, during the American Civil War Pryor served as a general in the Confederate Army as well as in the Confederate Congress. Following the conflict, Pryor moved to New York City, and in 1868 his family joined him. He resumed his legal practice and is now considered among influential southerners in the North sometimes called \"Confederate carpetbaggers.\""
