abraham lincoln lived near my great-great-grandfather, and abraham gave the mallet to him, and then itons in my family. >> how do you check out a story like andrea's? start 200 years ago across the border in kentucky, says lincoln scholar dale ogden. what was lincoln's early life like in kentucky? >> he was born to a subsistence farmer family. his father actually was more of a carpenter than a farmer. >> in 1816, when abe is seven, thomas lincoln moves his family 100-miles west to the indiana territory, the same year it becomes a state. >> what brought them to indiana? >> it was a lot easier to prove ownership of your land than it was in kentucky. the other reason was that indiana was a state where slavery had been made illegal. i think thomas was just intrinsically opposed to the idea of slavery. >> the lincoln family settles on 160 acres in what's now spencer county, 150 miles south of indianapolis. here thomas lincoln becomes a sought-after cabinetmaker. >> he built beautiful furniture, and that was a very valuable skill on the frontier where there wasn't a whole lot that had been p

than abraham lincoln. this is going to be me talking about how lincoln was imagined in the 20th century. depression, lincoln was everywhere. movies were made about him, including one by legendary filmmaker dw griffith, as well as to better-known lincoln movies from the end of the decade. there was "young mr. lincoln," that's the 19 already nine film with henry fonda playing lincoln. there was "abe lincoln in illinois" with raymond massey as lincoln. ancoln even meets with confederate sympathizer played by shirley temple. she met lincoln too. the two of them shared an apple and then lincoln free' -- lincoln freeze shirley's father, who was falsely accused of being a confederate spy, from prison. lincoln starting novels, radio programs, theater performances, including two popular plays produced by the wpa federal theater. i think there were a lot more than just the two. there were small, regional productions and festivals about lincoln. he was very popular staple in the federal theater. in one of these popul

so is abraham lincoln. the power of abraham lincoln was so much that even somebody like douglas freeman had to moment,dge that at this the historical figure who seems most relevant to what we're doing is abraham lincoln. >> fdr being overly cautious, if you look at his results, it was the same in those states. people might vote for segregationist congressman and governors, but they adored fdr. >> i think you are right about that absolutely. one more? yes, i do have one more. >> this was a wonderful talk. i always thought fdr embraced jefferson more than lincoln. connect the two? i always felt that jefferson was more in the forefront than lincoln. >> jefferson was definitely important. fdr spoke at the dedication of the jefferson memorial in the 1930's. 1943. thank you. it is not as if jefferson was being overlooked. he does take opportunities to infuse jefferson things he talks about. trying to think about moments when he connects the two. i don't think so. i would say lincoln's relevance to current events

you don't send the abraham lincoln to borrow a term from where i grew up, you don't send the abraham lincoln if you are shucking. you send it when you show nothing. you don't send the abraham lincoln unless you want to make a statement. this is the ultimate in american military prowess. it has the ability to rain lethality unlike the human mind can imagine. this is the abraham lincoln, a nimitz class aircraft barrier. a part of a battle group. it is the equivalent of sending a military base. you don't send it to bluff. this is why we must be concerned. we have to be concerned because if you sent it because you're bluffing, are you playing with american military prowess. and if you sent it because you are going to use it, you have to come to congress. congress has to give the word. we don't play with this kind of lethality. there is a reality associated with this lethality that we cannot imagine. we have no way of predicting what can happen if we use this ultimate form of militarier force. we obviously have it to defend ourselves, defend our allies, and i don't object to defensing the

abraham lincoln became president with votes from the northern states. in the white house he faced a challenge of historic proportions. after his election in south carolina moved 1st soon 11 slaveholding states seceded from the united states the president decided to use the military to force the south back into the union. the civil war waged over differing definitions of freedom and cost the lives of 600000 soldiers and 500000 civilians 2 percent of the population. it remains the country's bloodiest conflict. half of those killed could not be identified. in may $861.00 the white slave owners on the sea islands had like every year left for the summer. their slaves remained behind. the north took the opportunity to seize control of the islands and arm several 100 gullah slaves. many of the men took pride in wearing the blue uniform and in joining the fight for their freedom. union forces soon occupied the nearby city of beaufort thanks to the 1st south carolina volunteer infantry regiment it was one of the 1st black regiments in the union army. the north n

abraham lincoln did get criticized by the press. the country was facing a existential crisis.ncoln and donald trump, there are so many i'm not going to elaborate on all of them. but one of the differences is that lincoln believed that his job was to try and unite the country at a time of division rather than further divide the country, so he didn't come out and accuse the press of being treasonous and didn't come out and attack the press. he tried to use the press to his advantage, like every president. like every presidential candidate i've ever known. by the way, i've never known a president who thought that he was being treated really well by the press. >> right. if we're doing our job they don't think they're being treated well. >> of course. >> there's another incredible moment in this interview with george stephanopolous in which the president's chief of staff, mick mulvaney, was struck by a coughing fit. let's take a quick look. >> at some point i hope they get it. >> you're going to turn it over? >> no, at some point -- i might, but at some point i hope they get it bec

and you remember, abraham lincoln manages to persuade 1% more people to vote for him than they had in 1860. ok? that's how close this was and why the events on the battlefield and on the homefront and in the south and in the north and the events of men and women, black people, white people, are the same story. pull them apart to see what people are doing, but they all come back together. but neither union victory nor emancipation that came as a result of that victory was preordained by numbers, manufacturing or moral superiority. we are fortunate that the united states survived. and we should be grateful for that deliverance rather than being certain that it was destined from the outset because they were modern like we are. the third plot line is both the most straightforward and the most powerful of all. from the first moments of secession, as cassandra showed us today, enslaved people did everything they could to escape and then destroy slavery. they escaped slavery and went to the aid of the united states within three weeks of virginia's secession. after 200 years of slavery in vir
