The movie LINCOLN does not accurately portray the freedom of slaves.

Rating: 6/10 (30 November 2015)

The movie Lincoln portrays the freedom of slaves in a loose manner. The movie only shows the side of the slaves freedom only through Abraham Lincoln. Slaves fought for their freedom just as much as Abe Lincoln fought for their freedom. The film does not really accurately show how slaves were freed. *spoiler alert* In the movie it shows Lincoln listening to a slave give a speech to him about the slaves future and their freedom. That scene in the movie never truly happened in real life, Lincoln was never confronted by a slave and given a speech of such manner. The text presented on schoology show how much the slaves fought in war to help free themselves, in the movie it was barely even apparent that many slaves fought and how much of a difference they made in gaining their rights to be equal and free like the white men. The film does not accurately portray how the slaves where freed in all of the needed events in Which took place because of the rebelling slaves in the civil war.
