What was lincoln's view on african americans

They were entitled to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Explanation:

The fact is that it was Lincoln's struggle to end slavery in the United States of America that put him in history as such a great President, since he was the president responsible for abolishing once and for all the slave labor of all the states of the nation. Lincoln fought for the rights of all humans to be free and happy, including African Americans because that's what he believed in. He viewed black people as people, not products.

according to the quotation from booker t. washington's 1895 atlanta compromise speech.

in the great leap from slavery to freedom . . the masses of us are to live by the production of our hands . . we shall prosper . . as we learn to dignify and glorify common labor.

washington believed that  hard work had its own kind of dignity.
