Tweeting Lincoln by National Poet Laureate Nominee Ronnie C. Wright is a semi-fictional historical drama set against the backdrop of the 1860's North and South, centering on the Emancipation Proclamation by President Abraham to end slavery and to make the Union whole. Lincoln's bird named "Twitter" is trained by Ham a slave to fly between the North and South tweeting messages, leading to the historic "emancipation proclamation."
