RETRO FILES / TIME TO REVISIT LINCOLN’S 2nd INAUGURAL ADDRESS

 


…”WHY THE STRUGGLE WAS NECESSARY…TIME TO REWIRE THE COUNTRY; CHANGE ITS MORAL COMPASS…” –President Obama. 

 Excerpts from a documentary via YouTube. 

The following is a recital, perhaps the best in history, of Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address (March 4, 1865), by actor Daniel Day-Lewis, which appeared in the film “Lincoln (produced by Steven Spielberg and Kathleen Kennedy). 

 Mr. Day-Lewis received an Academy Award in 2013 for his portrayal of President Lincoln. 

Included in the documentary are equally important words by President Obama. 

 Future generations, as is our current ones, are and will be blessed to have such a performance available to recall and remember the fight for total freedom must never be lost. 

The Second Inaugural Address by President Lincoln is a remarkable piece of history. 

It is also poetry.
