Because of Abraham Lincoln, Africans Americans shows their loyalty by voting overwhelmingly Republican. In 1936, 75 percent of Africans Americans supported the Democrats because the programs gave them some relief from the depression. Most of the New Deal programs discriminated by blacks. The administration continuously bowed to discrimination, instead of using New Deal programs to promote civil rights.
