It is terrible how the war cost so many lives, including Honest Abe. What a horrible, terrible tragedy. :( We can only learn from our mistakes. But the outcome was great: they abolish slavery although they have a long way to go in the way of civil rights: KKK-Ku Klux Klan which was banned when the white suprmacist caused lynching and burning of churches in the Deep South. Unfortunately some bigotry out there still exists.
It's how we were raised that caused us to become bigots towards others-doesn't matter the race, ethnicity, etcera. Doesn't matter how educated we are or aren't, we are
all bigots in one or another.
