Forced into Glory: Abraham Lincoln's White Dream By Lerone Bennett, Jr.
|
Why did Abraham Lincoln propose a constitutional amendment providing for the deportation of native- born cleansing of the United States? Why did he say, “What I most desire would be the separation of the white and black races”? Lerone Bennett, Jr., author of the Black history classic Before the Mayflower, answers these and other provocative questions in the long-awaited sequel to the Lincoln essay—“Was Abe Lincoln a White Supremacist?”--that provoked a national controversy and led to a reevaluation of the “great emancipator” myth. In the process, he explains why the most famous act in American political history never happened.
