Yesterday, December 11th, we read primary sources on South Carolina's secession and talked about the reasons why they thought they could secede.
Today, December 12th, we talked about Lincoln's situation as president. He had to keep up with the requirements of the Constitution, while tackling the issue of slavery and the secession of the southern states. Lincoln refused to see the seceded states as a country, and wanted to keep the country united.
