The Emancipation proclamation did not set slave up to actually gain anything from their freedom in the south. It did show the world the Civil War was a war for the ending of slavery in America.

What was the main concern with excluding slaves from the American revolutionary was effort?

Black soldiers served with valor at the battles of Lexington and Bunker Hill. In November 1775, however, Congress decided to exclude blacks from future enlistment out of a fear that recent offers from the British would cause the loss of most of their slaves. Lord Dunmore, the royal governor of Virginia, had promised freedom to any slaves who enlisted in the British army in April of 1775. Some eight hundred slaves took this offer, some wearing the emblem "Liberty to the Slaves" on their Redcoat uniforms. He was not the only person on the side of the crown to make this offer. This offer and the exclusion of blacks by Congress from the rebel side was untenable. By 1778, many states (including Virginia) agreed to grant freedom to slaves who served in the Revolutionary war. In the end, several thousand slaves won their freedom by serving on both sides of the War of Independence. Many other slaves were able to successfully Escape. It's estimated 50% of Georgia's slaves were able to achieve some sort of freedom and South Carolina's slave population was down 25%. Ultimately, though, our freedom was granted in the constitution of "We the People" specifically to white men. While the word "slave" never appears in the original constitution, the 3/5th compromise does and the South was granted additional representation where by virtue of owing human beings an individual could yield additional voting power through their Representative. It would be 100 years until slaves were emancipated with the Thirteenth amendment and 3 years later for the Fourteenth amendment to dispose of the 3/5ths clause.
