It is a possibility because Lincoln was the man who drafted the Emancipation Proclamation, which eventually led to the slaves gaining their freedom, but with individuals such as Martin Luther King Jr., I'm sure that slavery would eventually of been abolished. So without Lincoln, I think slavery just would of lasted longer.

What did Abraham Lincoln do to stop racism or slavery?

When Lincoln stood firm his anti-slavery stand and the Confederacy refused to return to the Union, the Civil War brought out and Lincoln was determined to win because winning would force the Confederacy back into the Union and could outlaw slavery. In 1862, he established the Emancipation Proclamation in which he gave freedom to all slaves in the Confederate states that did not return to the Union by the New Year in 1863. Then, when the war ended in 1865, he promoted the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, which made it unconstitutional and therefore illegal for slavery to exist in the United States.
