From 1861 to 1865, Abraham Lincoln served as the 16th President of the United States of America. Slavery was abolished by him in America thanks to his initiatives. He thought that all people, irrespective of race or ethnicity, were equal and that there was no difference between them. He was born into a low-income black community. This article will discuss the biography of this dynamic and influential personality in detail.

Abraham Lincoln Birth

In Hardin County, Kentucky(USA), Abraham Lincoln was born. His father, Thomas, was a strong and dedicated man who opened the path for others and was well-liked in society. During the property dispute, Lincoln and his family were forced to relocate from Kentucky to Perry County, Indiana, in 1817, where they struggled to earn a living. Still, Thomas ultimately purchased a plot of land.

On October 5, 1818, at 34, Abraham's mother died when he was just nine years old. His life was shattered at the moment also the distance between Abraham with his father was getting increased, so he worked hard. Thomas married Sarah Bush Johnson, a widow with three children, in December 1819, a year after her first wife's death. She was a powerful and kind lady who had a deep relationship with Abraham. Although neither of them had a high level of education, Sarah pushed Abraham to read. Abraham's schooling could not be finished because Thomas was a farmer with little assets. Another reason was that books were difficult to get by in Indiana, so Thomas travelled greater distances to obtain them. Abraham finished his education from the comfort of his own home.

STAAR finds a few 'real new'

and Jennifer Taylor The search for "The Real Men of Penn" has finally been completed. Fourteen University students have been commended for their strong support of the anti-sexual violence campaign organized by Students Together Against Acquaintance Rape. After a half-hour delay because of technical difficulties -- which were largely compensated for with good food supplied by Hillel -- the men were ceremoniously presented yesterday with a plaque honoring each as a "real man." A large poster featuring a picture of each man and his views on how to end sexual violence will be posted across campus today. According to College senior Zachary Liff, a STAAR executive board member and "Real Men" coordinator, it is important for males -- as well as females -- to take responsibility for ending sexual violence. "We as men must challenge traditional notions of masculinity," Liff said. "Everyone on campus knows me as the rape guy," he added. "There is a stigma attached to this kind of work." Liff said he hopes this poster will change males' reluctance to become involved in these issues. As organizer of yesterday's event, Liff introduced keynote speaker Susan Villari, director of health education and one of the 1989 founders of STAAR. Villari emphasized the important role students play in advancing the movement against rape. She explained that groups like STAAR re-sensitize people to such issues. "We can't underestimate the power of student movement," Villari said. Following her speech, STAAR members introduced each of the "real men" with a brief description of their accomplishments. College junior Michael Coffey, one of the "real men," said he supports the University's women's movement. "I support women on this campus and what they do," he said. "[I hope that] someone does that for my sisters, wherever they might be." Wha

IRVING, Texas — The so-called liberal media are preaching the good news about Glenn Beck in unison: He is redeemed! “Glenn Beck Is Sorry About All That,” the New York Times says. The New Yorker announces that “Glenn Beck Tries Out Decency.” The Atlantic catalogues “Glenn Beck’s Regrets.”

In the publications that Beck for years dismissed as an effete elite that had led the nation astray, the notion that Beck has now apologized for everything he did to make America an uglier, louder, more fractious place is just too delicious to resist. Now, in a moment of deep gloom for the nation’s intellectuals, life delivers a gleaming gift: Glenn Beck, godfather to the tea party, cable news rabble-rouser of the first order, a hawker of ornate and dire conspiracy theories, not only has spent the past year as a Never Trumper but also has spurned his past and is testifying to the power of love, understanding and empathy — for liberals!

For those who yearn to believe the movement that made President Donald Trump possible is having serious second thoughts, the new Glenn Beck seems heaven sent.

Seven years ago, the Mount Vernon native was the fourth most admired man in the country (just ahead of the pope). He shouted, he explained, he wept, he drew intricate charts on his chalkboard to show how evil forces were conspiring against good Americans. He sowed fear and gathered up his minions to form an army of righteous anger, who stormed the nation’s capital a hundred-thousand strong to stand tall for the Constitution, determined to fulfill the prophecy that Beck, a Mormon, had described to them: a stirring tale of the Mormon prophet Joseph Smith’s followers parading through the streets of Utah, with only the Constitution to protect them.

Back then, Beck was the bad boy of cable, on CNN’s HLN
