Newsflash. Most of our forefathers were unabashed racists.
So when do we tear down the Lincoln Memorial?
But before you do, please first keep lecturing us about systemic racism and how our country has made zero advances on the issue of equality for all.
Our 16th President Abraham Lincoln said...
I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality ... I will add to this that I have never seen, to my knowledge, a man, woman, or child who was in favor of producing a perfect equality, social and political, between negroes and white men.
