Introduction• Lincoln’s personal and political evolution• Textbooks over simplify Lincoln’s view on
slavery and racism • Lincoln’s motives are arguable among sources• Students should be presented with the whole
picture to understand Lincoln’s decisions and creation of Emancipation Proclamation

“If textbooks recognized Lincoln’s racism,students would learn that racism
not only affected Ku Klux Klan extremists but has been ‘normal’ throughout history”
-Loewen, 2007, p. 182
