Description:
Los Angeles: Christian Nationalist Crusade, [195-?]. A small two-sided card (3 ¼" x 5 ¾") reprinting Lincoln's 1858 speech, in which he infamously remarked: "I will say, then, that 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..." One of the few historical quotes ubiquitously reproduced by the Far Right that was not fabricated or distorted, although it was certainly over-emphasized in an attempt to discredit the Northern integration movement. Lincoln issued the speech during one of his debates with Stephen Douglas as he attempted to fend off accusations that he supported racial equality. Fine. No record for this card in WorldCat.
