providing clothes, food, medical care, and education to newly freed slaves
Escaped slaves should be freed from bondage as slavery is unethical and goes against the principles of human rights and freedom. It is important to prioritize the well-being and autonomy of individuals over the property rights of slave owners.
No they did not
Many Southerners believed slavery was not wrong because: - Slavery was economically necessary for the South - The Bible did not speak out against slavery - The slaves were treated with much care from the Southern owners - Slaves were seen as children (innocent, unaware that they were being taken advantage of) and the Southerners viewed themselves as "parents" to the slaves. - Blacks were a naturally inferior race unable to take care of themselves.
The only slaves freed as a result of the Proclamation were those liberated by Union troops during their Southern campaigns. The troops did not especially care what happened to these slaves, as long as their owners suffered enough. But they tagged along as unofficial slaves to the Union armies, eventually being allowed to enlist in the ranks.
If it had been, we would not have had the US Civil War. Even those Southerners who accepted the immorality of slavery could not end the practice, although some freed their own slaves. The large numbers of "unpaid" laborers to the Southern economy were irreplaceable, or so it seemed. Although slaves were expensive to care for, they could not easily leave their owners, and most of their children were born slaves. This meant that they were a reliable source of physical labor in the agricultural South.
Most states never freed the slaves. The North started to ban slavery across all of the Northern states. The South never wanted to ban the slavery then. Thats one of the causes of the Civil war. When Abraham Lincoln become the president he, banned slavery. Some people didn't care about the law and still went with it, they soon went to jail. Hope this helpeddd.(: The Emancipation Proclamation freed the slaves in the rebellious southern states on January 1, 1863. The 14th Amendment freed the rest in 1865.
