On April 16, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the D.C.

He hoped this would encourage border states to gradually end slavery.

Wow - thanks so much. Means a lot that your son is learning from #TheGrift. This month actually marks 167 years since the horrific Dred Scott decision.
My 22 yr- old is ENAMORED w/& learning from #TheGrift by @claycane & is reading it to me! https://t.co/2CTykyUhFc
Wow -thanks for this. After three weeks on the NYT best sellers list, I’ve never seen my book up front or on a table. Unfortunately, I’ve been hearing #TheGrift is in the stock room - not even on the shelves. Shout out to Atlanta!
