The 2000 television movie "A House Divided" is based on Kent Anderson's nonfiction "Woman's color, a woman with privilege: Amanda Dixon" (1849-1893), a mixed-lady woman in the south. His mother is a mother. When a slave her wealthy white father tried to hand her her property to her, the family challenged his white relative to ask them to dominate the estate. They quote local laws which prohibit blacks from possessing property (legally, the definition of a young lady is the slave status and racial status of her mother). Amanda Dixon succeeded in inheriting his father's property

Lincoln 's House Split Lecture: The "House Split" speech was a 1858 Republican speech before the State Council of Springfield, Illinois. It warns people that "self-divisive houses can not be built" and refers to slavery issues. Lincoln predicted in the speech that slaves would eventually become free. Freeportism: "freeportism" by Stephen Douglas points out that the elimination of slavery in a region may be decided by voters who refuse to establish a law to protect slavery. In 1858, the Southern people refused this doctrine because they did not abide by the rights of slavery. This reaction hurt him in the election.

Lincoln made a comparison two years after the split speech in the House of Representatives, comparing slaves with Satan in Connecticut Hartford 64. Satan's possession system is more subtle and powerful. Lincoln implied that slavery is the devil who must eventually be kicked out of the United States. Actually, it is. Then, if the Republicans believe that slavery is wrong and that public opinion is shaped as a wrong fact, we should be under the control of the general government. We treat it as mistaken and prevent you being postponed. For example, on the street, in the field, or in the meadow, I found a rattlesnake. I bet on him and killed him. Everyone agrees with this action and I will say that I am doing the right thing.
