Jefferson contemplated expulsion. Madison favored colonization. Lincoln explored voluntary emigration.

Colonization or emigration, call it what you will. The key is was that it was voluntary and not government-led expulsion like Jefferson suggested. And really, given the conditions under which blacks in the U.S. labored under, be it in the North or in the South, where was Lincoln’s proposal all that bad?
