yes
they fought to preserve the union states to be free.
slaves would fight for their freedom if they could but their masters werent allowing them to read or to write, or leave their masters home, so all the slaves couldnt meet up and make weapons, and make a big army ready. at the time the whites had empowerment over the blacks, and if the blacks got caught leaving they would be wipped, basically they didnt have time, the power, the communication, or the resources.... but the good news is theyre free now
Because they needed more people to fight against the British
Free blacks were not helped by education reform.
Because they wanted revenge to fight back to the confederacy.To end slavery.

Many blacks did fight in the south but not as much as blacks in the north. Blacks in the south that fought were either free land owners and were fighting to keep their land, or they were slaves of owners who were drafted in the war and they fought alongside their owners.
No. But there were some free blacks in the southern states.
blacks contribute to the civil war by being part of the war many of them died on the side of the union because the union was against slavery and most of them wanted to be free and have rights. More black people volunteered to be in war than whites
