I am appalled that a racist was allowed to spread ignorance in Wikipedia which is much too refined for this. Just using a reference, one can make up anything they would like. Abraham Lincoln said what he said in order to win votes in order to be elected president so he could put an end to slavery. He had to speak to the same audiences as Stephen Douglas. Lincoln knew what he had to say to win.Daviddaniel37(talk) 21:14, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We need reliable sources. The hagiographic curriculum in middle school isn't sufficient EvergreenFir(talk) 04:53, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
When this article uses the term Americans, does it exclude non U.S. nationals? Racism does not target "Americans" only, I would think. Senorangel (talk) 23:02, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I found this quite interesting article on PolitiFact. Maybe it has some use in this or some related articles. Fwiw, it includes a list of sources. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:42, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
