LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY 2018

Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12^th. During his presidency, he preserved the union of the United States and freed the slaves. Slavery is the root cause of today’s racism. Many Americans still do not know that slavery purposely broke up African American families, regarded black human beings as animals and treated them with no dignity, respect or compassion. Lincoln is called the Great Emancipator. But racism continued and remains.
