One of the most damaging myths about American history is that Abraham Lincoln was a terrible president. That he was a racist who loved slavery, and worked hard to keep the Civil War from ending it. That Abraham Lincoln was a pro-slavery weasel whom black Americans should scorn and whose memory we should all trample in the dust.

Many American Presidents have tried to alleviate the problem of racism in America; the first to do so in a meaningful way was Abraham Lincoln.
