This is a beautifully informed series. It does have some bias commentary but what people don’t understand is slavery and servitude was a part of live thousand of years before America’s slavery begun. For back then, it was a normal until someone like Lincoln changed it. They mention how Lincoln didn’t want slaves to be colonized with the white Americans and how he emancipated people for economic reasons. Unsure if he believe in freedom of slaves or maybe he stated what he did in order to get people on board. If I was a slave back then, I would not want to live or be around slave owners.
I’d choose colonization elsewhere over being enslaved. I’m looking forward to upcoming episodes.
“Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man’s nature — opposition to it is in his love of justice.
—-Abraham Lincoln, October 16, 1854 Speech in Peoria
“I am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong, then nothing is wrong.”
—Abraham Lincoln, April 4, 1864
“This is a world of compensations; and he who would be no slave, must consent to have no slave. Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it.”
—Abraham Lincoln, April 6, 1859
“Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.”
—Abraham Lincoln
