@kanyewest ye did you know one of only 7 rural predominantly black schools in the US is going to close next month due to lack of funding? Lots of kids from your neighborhood attend. Save Lincoln College! We opened in 1865 & named after first Republican president Abraham Lincoln

It is with a heavy heart that we share this news. It is our hope at Lincoln Heritage Museum that we will survive past Lincoln College's closure but at this time our future is uncertain. Until further notice Lincoln Heritage Museum will remain open for normal operating hours.

Happy anniversary to the Lincolns! On this day in 1842, Abraham and Mary Lincoln became husband and wife. Did you know that the Lincolns were engaged twice before getting married? The first engagement was called off.

Tomorrow is Election Day! Time for the campaigning to stop and the people to decide.

Lincoln wrote these words on February 7, 1846 in response to a letter from John Hardin of Jacksonville, Illinois. Hardin criticized Lincoln's interest in running for Congress.

Even during such a divisive election year, it's important to remember that we are stronger together than apart. #LincolnQuotes
