Abe Lincoln On Racial Equality-- Part 2


Abraham Lincoln also said:  "I will add to this that I have never seen to my knowledge a man, woman or child was in favor of producing a perfect equality, social and political between negroes and white men.  I recollect of but one distinguished instance that I have ever heard of so frequently as to be entirely satisfied of its correctness -- and that is the case of Judge Douglas' old friend Col. Richard M. Johnson."

The crowd responded to these remarks with laughter.

Thus Sayeth the Great Emancipator.  --Old Secesh
