Abraham Lincoln's position on slavery in the United States is one of the most discussed aspects of his life. Lincoln often expressed moral opposition to slavery in public and private. "I am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong," he stated in a now-famous quote. "I can not remember when I did not so think, and feel." However, the question of what to do about it and how to end it, given that it was so firmly embedded in the nation's constitutional framework, in Congress, and in the economy of much of the country, was complex and politically challenging. In addition, there was the unanswered question, which Lincoln had to deal with, of what would become of the four million slaves if liberated: how they would earn a living in a society that had almost always reject

  • يُعد موقف أبراهام لينكولن من العبودية في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية أحد أكثر الجوانب التي نوقشت في حياته. غالبًا ما أعرب لينكولن عن معارضته الأخلاقية للعبودية في الأماكن العامة والخاصة. قال لينكولن في عبارة باتت شهيرة اليوم «أنا بطبيعة الحال مناهض للعبودية، إن لم تكن العبودية خطأ، فلا شيء خطأ». «لا أتذكر متى لم يكن هذا رأيي وما أشعر به». وعلى الرغم من ذلك، كانت مسألة ما كان ينبغي فعله حيال العبودية وكيفية إنهائها، نظرًا إلى كونها جزءًا لا يتجزأ من الإطار الدستوري للأمة وفي اقتصاد معظم أنحاء البلاد، مسألة معقدة وصعبة سياسيًا. إضافة إلى ذلك، برز سؤال لم تطرح إجابه عليه، وكان يترتب على لينكولن التعامل معه، حول ما سيحدث للأربعة ملايين من العبيد حين ينالون حريتهم، وكيف ستوفر حاجياتهم في مجتمع كان قد رفضهم لمدة طويلة، وكان ينظر باحتقار إلى وجودهم.
