In this FIRST EPISODE (extended) of the new season of Leading By History, Dr. Lucas Morel of Washington & Lee University joins us to discuss the legacy of Abraham Lincoln as "Great Emancipator" or "White Supremacist". There has been much debate over the last several decades as to what Abraham Lincoln meant for African-American people and oppressed people world-wide. Some have viewed him as a great man who gave enslaved people in the U.S. their freedom and new opportunity, while others insist that he was not much different than the other white men of his day who promoted the superiority of the white race and cared little for the lives of the enslaved. Listen closely and fully as you weigh in with your own thoughts. This show is a must listen for the students of history and political science.
