Thaddeus Stevens was a fierce yet witty leader for the Radical Republicans. He was a great debater and on of his friends was quote saying "a rude jouster in political and personal warfare. Stevens treated politics as a war ground and stood up for what he truly believed in. Stevens felt that every man who allowed slavery was "disloyal to God." When he died he chose to be buried in an integrated cemetery because he wanted to prove what he dedicated his life for and that was equality.
