Does it depict Lincoln accurately as a racist and such ?
OR does it have a more "safe" or "nice" depiction of Lincoln ?

Nice Lincoln



I thought it was ok, but not something I want to watch again. It wasn't the dialogue, it was too melodramatic, and Lincoln's oldest son felt like a last minute throw-in (JGL).


But the homie @track 1 is def trolling with this one.

It held my attention, I'll probably never watch it again. Not the worst movie ever or close to it.

he was an ethnocentric but not a racist. he didn't harbor any outright hatred towards blacks. in fact he felt they should be treated like just a good as white people. however he still felt whites shouldn't intermarry with them and thought it would be better they whites and black lived separately. he still felt his own race was preferable but he made it clear in many speech that blacks are born equal to any other man. His views softened towards blacks a bit toward the end of his life too so it would be accurate to show him having sympathy towards the plight of black folk.

as i say actions speak louder than words. the emancipation proclamation may have been a shady political maneuver use by him to help win the war but the thirteenth amendment was unnecessary unless he felt morally obligated to do so.:usure:

alotta people confuse ethnocentrism with racism.
i would define racism as an ignorant desire to tear down another group of people based on perceived characteristics
ethnocentrism is more of a logical desire to encourage to advancement of your own race before other races. which is fine unless taken to extremes levels where it might turn into a feeling of supremacy.
