Abraham Lincoln
I see Abraham Lincoln as a hero because of how he helped our country to get to where we are today. He was our sixteenth president who stood up for what he believed in. People see him as a hero because of what he did. He helped our country free the slaves. Some see him as a hero because he wrote the Emancipation Proclamation, which had a great deal with freeing a lot of slaves. While some see him as a hero others see him as a villain. The people who were against freeing slaves had to give their free labor up. Meaning the ones who owned slaves didn't anymore because of what Abraham Lincoln did.

Abraham Lincoln is a great example of a public hero. You're right, some people in the south definitely viewed him as a villian for taking away their work force.
