The awful truth.

 In conversation class, I got an awful and goose-bumped truth about who I had believed in he was the one of the greatest leaders not only in America but entire world. Can you guys guess whom I am talking about? He is Ablaham Lincon. Not only me but most korean students have known him as an exallent leader. Yes, he was a good leader for white people or citizens, but not for the blacks. I would say African – American. You could say that I am stupid beacause the fact that he freed black people from under the name of slavery.

 There is a somthing to talk about it. When did he free them? It was after the civil war. I would say he could have freed them before the civil war occured if he really meant and felt sorry to them. However, he didn’t. If he thoght that blacks have equal right like white,he should have let those people free first and let them fight for their own rights,but he didn’t. What implies you? Do you feel anything?

 He was a calculated and mean and smart person as well. He thought let blacks free right after the war could affect on southernes whoes economy was run by majority group of blak. Actually it did and he succeeded in it. Before since I didn’t know  the awful truth, I had been thaught like he was the greatest guy in terms of all what he did for people.

I can not say that whole concept of him is fake, but at least I have samll eyes to see what is under the truth that I have heard and believed. I am glad that at least now I can think the other way around any truths in which are witten or taught by majority of historians could contain a kind of winners minds.

Does it excist a real truth? Everyhting is curved and distorted. You could realize by looking at the mirror. It shows the exact opposite side of real things.

There is one truth that there is no such a perfect  truth out there

One thought on “The awful truth.

  1. I think hiistory always has two sides of the same coin. Evaluation about historical ahcivement and people are different in accordance with an appraiser. Hum………Lincoln…. interesting…!!
