The abolition of slavery is amendment number 13.
Slave codes. State slave codes forbade enslaved men and women from owning property, leaving a slaveholder's premises without permission, or testifying in court against a white person.
Two notable abolitionists who grew up in slave-owning families in South Carolina were Angelina Grimké and Sarah Grimké. They were sisters who became outspoken advocates for the abolition of slavery, as well as women's rights. Their experiences growing up in a slave-owning household influenced their decision to work against the institution of slavery.
A bloody civil war between the slave owning and non-slave owning states (1862-65)
The free-soil North won against the slave-owning Confederacy. However, there were four slave-owning states on the Northern side, and Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation did not free those slaves. This confirms that the Proclamation was not really to do with Abolitonism. It was an urgent tactical measure to keep the British from supporting the Confederates, because it would have made them look pro-slavery.
