Lincoln was president from March 4, 1861 to April 15, 1865, during which time, while in the midst of a Civil War, he signed the Emancipation Proclamation in January 1863 in order to gain military advantage over the South. In March 1865 President Lincoln delivered his second inaugural address.According to the US Library of Congress in a summary essay compiled from many authors, it is their opinion that “Lincoln personally abhorred slavery.” The facts of his actions say otherwise. The Library of Congress essay goes on to say Lincoln, “felt confined by his constitutional authority as president to challenge slavery only in the context of necessary war measures..
Abraham Lincoln is not the Great Emancipator but instead simply a war strategist and union preservationist. The US Civil War of 1861 CE to 1865 CE was not whites fighting whites to free blacks, thus end slavery. Lincoln loved whiteness ideology and its inherent logic wrongness and its possession of ill-gotten gain and lands, more than Lincoln loved human decency. Thus Abraham Lincoln was only against slavery to the extent whiteness wrongness and its governmental union of white states could be preserved. Since Lincoln knew the achievement of both was not possible, he basically said leave the enslavement of blacks to God and God will sort it out. The Great Gods of the Ages created a set of conditions that forced Lincoln to free some slaves in order to achieve his objective of preserving the Imperfect Union. Lincoln's spirit and the spirit of the US Supreme Court was overruled by the Greater Supreme Court in the Halls of Two Truths.
The Library of Congress essay goes on to say “In August 1862, Lincoln stated plainly that the goal of his administration's policies, including those related to slavery, was to save the Union. "My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery." [Thus, again, the Civil War was not fought to free slaves. It was fought because 11 states seceded from the Union in an attempt to form their own country from the lands they occupied. Due to slave labor, the south was getting too unruly and too big for its britches. Plus congressional representation, taxation and State Rights. Slavery was merely an unavoidable side issue. I suspect the North considered itself the genteel upper class while viewing the south as lower class illiterate farmers and physical laborers. 5 slave holding states did not secede and were called Border States (Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, West Virginia). These states were split with some residents supporting the North's 20 states, and others, the South's 11 states].
Lincoln went on to say, "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that." Lincoln carefully noted that this represented his official position. He intended "no modification of my oft-expressed personal wish that all men everywhere could be free."
In September 1862 Lincoln said, “I think it cannot be shown that when I have once taken a position, I have ever retreated from it.”
All this is ignored and swept under the rug of the following quote by Frederick Douglass in the 1880s CE: “In all my interviews with Mr. Lincoln I was impressed with his entire freedom from popular prejudice against the colored race. He was the first great man that I talked with in the United States freely, who in no single instance reminded me of the difference between himself and myself, of the difference of color...”
In August 1862, he [Lincoln] met with five leading members of Washington’s black community to enlist their support for colonization. Reportedly, he “received the delegation with great kindness, shaking hands very cordially with each one.” During his remarks, he referred to them as “intelligent colored men” [if that ain't a racist, then no one is] and said, “Your race are suffering, in my judgment, the greatest wrong inflicted on any people.” His encouragement of colonization to Central America on that occasion has been interpreted as evidence of Lincoln’s deep-dyed racism, but as he suggested to his callers, insofar as African Americans lagged behind whites intellectually, it was because they were oppressed, not because they were biologically inferior. Lincoln asked the black guests to spearhead colonization [moving all blacks to desperado filled Central America] because any pioneering efforts in that cause had to be led by men “capable of thinking as white men, and not those who have been systematically oppressed [by truth and optimal theory so as to be dangerous, i.e., think as black men].”A March 2022 CE article titled, ”How Lincoln and Douglass Joined Forces for Freedom” by Jonathan W. White, professor of American Studies at Christopher Newport University says, In August 1864, Lincoln summoned Frederick Douglass to the White House to formulate a plan to free as many slaves as possible before the next inauguration in March 1865.”
This is after the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation when Lincoln had the chance to “free as many slaves as possible.” Other information, statements and actions of Lincoln contradict the notion that Lincoln wanted to free slaves. This article must be held highly suspect and then rejected for stupid statements like this that it wants us to believe along with accepting this article's overall theme.

Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation and the Civil War have been mentioned several times on this weblog. In contradiction to these views, the education academy in societies worldwide continue to present false narratives that don't hold up to scrutiny when statements are compared to each other and events and actions in each society.1. In his essay, A Man But Not A Brother: Abraham Lincoln and Racial Equality by George M. Fredrickson, he takes the middle of the road viewpoint.
2. Another of Fredrickson's articles revisiting his viewpoints is further revisited by Brian Dirck in his article, Dirck on Fredrickson, 'Big Enough to Be Inconsistent: Abraham Lincoln Confronts Slavery and Race'. Just as the honesty of President George Washington must be rejected, I also say the notion that Lincoln was not a racist must be rejected. Furthermore, the notion that his views on race changed during the Civil War must be rejected. No racist changes in four years or changes in their lifetime. Once babies are inbred into racism, they don't change because they don't want to because they don't want to have to do the work of reconciling their logic and taking appropriate actions. If in fact, Lincoln's views did change during the Civil War, then what did it change to, from non-racist to racist, or from racist to non-racist?
It must be remembered that the job of the Maafa Racism institution called Education and the Academy is to confuse you and defuse revolution against the status quo. This is in fact the job of religion and all other institutions in societies.
