Much less than you think because Reconstruction was such a failure. Slavery would have died out on its own eventually with industrialization and boycotts.

Oh, and statues of Confederate generals. Scratch that, that happened, anyway!

Would also depend on whether blacks would have been allowed to travel to the northern industrial cities. If not, the US would be very different.
