Im pretty sure that I posted stuff here along these lines . I certainly posted the articles somewhere .
As I remember he wanted the africans to be sent back to africa or to a special island paradise where they can create another society in their own ways .

He was all for the segregation because he just did not see the two cultures being compatiable down the line in American society .

segregation doesn't equal shipping them off. it was a very small group of abolitionist that had some wacky idea that they could use freed slaves to colonize coastal africa into friendly african colonies.

the descendants of these abolitionists of course took advantage of it (ie read firestone), but all in all it was a very small group. lincoln wasn't part of it. yes he was pro abolition, yet (as quoted) he realized that the union was more important than freeing the slaves and was 100% ready to reunite instead of emancipation.

a lot of people don't realize that the civil war started when the election results of lincoln winning came in! he wasn't even inaugurated yet, much less emancipated the slaves. freeing slaves came years later after thousands of white people died fighting the rebels
