In
the video watched in class yesterday their was the following quote from Abraham
Lincoln:
“As
a nation we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes." Soon it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners,
and Catholics." When it comes to this, I should prefer emigrating
to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty--to Russia, for
instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of
hypocrisy.”
What
was he saying?
