Yes, I’ve been wondering who this ‘Quinton’ is.
One of the greatest tragedies to our country that Lincoln’s death represented is that he had a high priority for education of the former slaves. After he was gone, few in any power really cared about that...
OTOH...even during slavery and then wildly so, after slavery, blacks yearned for an education and most of them DID get one; even some being good enough to get into the "vaunted" Ivies and other top tier colleges WITHOUT any Affirmative Action at all!
