You need to reread Lincoln. He did not believe that niggers should be in a position of anything other than servitude to whites.

> A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other."

I wonder what side of that divide old Abe was on 🤔

"Free" dod not mean "niggers get to vote" in the 1860s.
It simply means they would not be chattel property.

Lincoln correctly wanted to deport all of them back to Africa. Others thought of putting them on reservations to keep them separated. No republican in 1860 wanted to have blacks in government.

Now, AFTER the Civil War,they thought it was funny when blacks got elected in the South.

I don't doubt that the sentiment toward a free black slave wasn't to grant him absolute liberty. But it's easier to ship away property than deport "free people." Being on the anti-slavery side was one of the steps that got us into the mess we're in.

At the end of the day, no mass deportation plan was put into effect. No sterilization or neutralization took place. And no segregation laws stood the test of time.
