Lincoln and Douglass' Contributions to the End of Slavery

Abraham Lincoln is Caucasian and Frederick Douglas is African. Lincoln and the Free Americans enjoy all human rights, unlike Frederick Douglas was born as a slave, and even not even the right to have the direct right of human beings. Lincoln was free when Douglas fought for his rights. Jeremy Lin is a political leader, a professional lawyer, unlike him, Douglas is a journalist and an excellent editor. Frederick Douglas used his newspaper to determine the black people's rights and rights and the general feelings that seek opportunities to enjoy them, and Lincoln used his president's power as chairman or his powerful I used power.

In the 1850s, two giants in the American historical setting, Frederick Douglas and Abraham Lincoln began to progress the path of slavery integration. On June 16, 1858, Lincoln's speech on 'House division' declared that the state could not survive semi-slaves and semi-freedom. Both Douglas and Lincoln were inspired by the philosophy of freedom and equality included in the Declaration of Independence, but it is immoral to agree to slavery, they opposed the best way to abolish the system. Frederick Douglas was convinced that the Constitution is anti - slavery, but Lincoln claims that the document does not allow Parliament to abolish the southern systems. According to Lincoln's decision, what the federal government can do is to prevent slavery from spreading to new territory. Lincoln wants slavery to die naturally only in the southern part.

When I saw Lincoln 's approach to anti - slavery movement, Douglas' idea was open to the wisdom of Lincoln politicians. "In his heart" Douglas later refused that Lincoln hated "dislike and slavery." The base of this deep appreciation is, of course, Lincoln 's liberation declaration, which was promulgated in September 1862 and announced in the next January. . "This declaration changed everything," Douglas later remembered. But in August 1864, when the president worried that a voter who immediately lost morale would be forced to end the war at an early stage, the president unquestionably confirmed Lincoln 's anti - slavery commitment. He summoned Douglas to the White House and discussed secret plans. Please release as much as possible during this time. "What I said on this day" Douglas wrote in his last autobiography, "I show a deeper moral belief in slavery than ever".

Just before the 1860 election, Frederick Douglas briefly summarized the dilemma faced by slavery rivals such as Lincoln. Abstractly, Douglas wrote that most Northern people agree that slavery is wrong. The challenge is to find a way to "convert anti - slavery to anti - slavery behavior". The Constitution prohibits interference with slavery in existing states. For Lincoln, like most Republicans, anti-slavery action means not to attack slavery, but to try to prevent slavery from spreading to the west.
