- Listen while Kent Masterson Brown discusses with Jon Park his experiences growing up in Springfield, Illinois in the shadow of Abraham Lincoln, and why a life imbued with a sense of history gives meaning and depth to the American experience.
An old woman listening in Northern Ireland to the Fort Gower declaration. A powerful testimony to their integriy if thats the right word, and.there was no hint of malice but a simple powerful acknowledgment of what was right and deternination to be free. Maybe I have an ancestor who fought under General Washington - I would love that.
Thanks for watching and commenting! Can't wait for our film, "The Coming of the Revolution" to be released, where we discuss the Fort Gower Declarations in detail.
I am not a fan of Lincoln and I do not give him credit for freeing Black slaves. Mercantilism greatly grew after the civil war which allowed government to get involved with our businesses/industries,---and now they have been taken over. It was the Philosophies of "Individual Liberty protected by law" that freed the slaves in 1863, (no other philosophy ever liberated anybody.), and some of the Black slaves understood that better than any university professor today. That is why I have met Blacks with the last name of "Washington, Jefferson, Franklin" (the men who implemented individual liberty in the USA), but I have not met a Black man by the name of Lincoln. He was a turning point favoring collectivism.
In that respect, I wish the South had won.
Christianity played a part in the drive to abolish slavery. The abolitionists
