American Exceptionalism: Land of Liberty, Foundation of Slavery - Last of a Series

Last of a Series

Lincoln Memorial, 2023

“. . . to bind up the nation's wounds. . .”

- Abraham Lincoln

 

My granddaughter, Sutton, looks outward from beneath Lincoln’s Second Inaugural.

This is the last in the series: “American Exceptionalism: Land of Liberty, Foundation of Slavery.” You can find the whole series in chronological order here.

Thank you for reading the blog and supporting me. I have learned a lot from your responses, and I have grown through the conversations. At my age, it’s hard to ask for more.

My next series: “A River and its Water: Reclaiming the Commons” will start in about two weeks. I hope you will join me.

Gratefully,

Jamie Blaine
