President Lincoln was worried border states would secede if he let them fight  that's why he did not want African Americans to fight in the civil war.

Option: B

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass wanted that African and Americans should be allowed to join the fight as the north needed more able fighters to win the fight. In the mean time president Abraham Lincoln did not want African-Americans to fight in the civil war because he was afraid that border states would secede if they join the fight.

Lincoln was against the slavery system. He wanted to abolish the system. But North did not want them to be a part of the war whereas to abolish the slavery system they need to fight in the civil war from the north.
