Inaugural Addresses Comparison Ryan Gamino & Meghan Thornton

Jefferson Davis’s Inaugural Address H- Jefferson Davis’s first Inaugural Address: February 18 th 1861 around two months before the start of the Civil War. I- The Southerners/Confederates P-To tell the Confederacy that they will protect their rights and that the Union are infringing upon their rights so their secession was just to promote their own welfare. P-Davis was raised in the Southern cotton plantations and he thought that it was a right to own slaves. He firmly believed that slavery was “a positive good” O-His ideas were very different from many Northerners like Lincoln who thought slavery was a “necessary evil” S-Davis’s ideas combined with others led to the Civil War where he was the president of the confederacy and in charge of the war planning

Lincoln’s Inaugural Address H-Lincoln’s First Inaugural Address: March 4, 1861 at the White House around the time the Civil War first started I-Northerners/Unionists P-To reassure the people of the United States that we will get through any hardships with victory without needing to rid it of slavery P-Lincoln’s/Free-Soiler’s perspective that slavery doesn’t need to end but just the expansion of it in order to preserve the Union. O-Different from Lincoln’s second address where he announces that he might have to free slaves in order to preserve the Union which goes against what he first said. S-Can be compared to the Wilmot Proviso which banned slavery in Mexican Cession land which was supported by Lincoln and the Free-Soilers.

Comparison Lincoln’s Inaugural address was neutral and made a peaceful approach to the slavery conflict while Davis’s address was slightly more aggressive with his arguments in favor of slavery rather than neutrally. Lincoln was speaking to the Northerners (Union) while Davis was speaking to the South (Confederacy), which had extremely differing views on slavery. Both speeches were a month apart and spoken in different places which would have caused a time gap where more states seceded and conflicts got worse.
