It deprived the Southern enemy of his property, and made it impossible for Britain to help the Confederates without looking pro-slavery.

The Emancipation Proclamation freed the slaves in the Southern states, who already broke off from the union. This meant that President Lincoln had no control over whethere these slaves would be free or not. But once a Southern town or area was freed by Union soldiers, the slaves would be free. This caused help for the Union army from former slaves. The Emancipation Proclamation went into effect January 1, 1863.
freed slaves willing to help fight the south
Some of them fought in the Civil War in return for their freedom, but never got it, and some of them stayed slaves on plantations, until president Lincoln signed the imancipation proclamation.
The Gettysburg Address helped the Union
The black slaves helped the union in two ways. First, they escaped from the South bringing the confederate's economy down. And second, most of the blacks joined the Union army to help win the Civil War.
The Emancipation Proclamation did not free all slaves in the United States. Rather, it declared free only those slaves living in states not under Union control. William Seward, Lincoln's secretary of state, commented, "We show oursympathywith slavery by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free." Lincoln was fully aware of the irony, but he did not want to antagonize the slave states loyal to the Union by setting their slaves free.The proclamation allowed black soldiers to fight for the Union -- soldiers that were desperately needed. It also tied the issue of slavery directly to the war.The proclamation really had nothing do with slavery itself, it was merely a tactic to help the Union in the Civil War.Slavery ended in the United States with the ratification of the thirteenth amendment.
The Union armies were against slavery, as one of their key points to fight about, and freed slaves often would join in. Slaves could also usually remain free in the North (thus, the Union Army) and many other slaves wished to be free. If the Union were to win the Civil War, then it was highly likely that slaver would be abolished so many salevs chose to help fight in side with the Union for that reasons.
slaves ran away from plantation to join the Union.
Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation freeing all slaves in states that were in rebellion against the Union. The proclamation was issued in the Fall of 1862 and took effect on January 1, 1863.
They sometimes grew food for the Union army -novanet
Sectionalism was one of the causes of the Civil War. The Southern states seceded from the Union because they didn't want President Lincoln to free their slaves. The South depended on their slaves to help with their farms; the slaves were part of the South's life. When Abraham Lincilon became President, the South didn't want to be part of the Union. They became the Confederate States of America. After the Civil War though, the South was united again with the North and slavery was abolished.
As the US Civil War progressed, the Union army began to occupy vast amounts of Southern territory. Tere on huge plantations and even small farms, the slaves were able to escape from their owners and move to the North and- or become soldiers. This part of the war effectively freed many slaves. As far as Washington DC policies were concerned, the January 1st 1863 Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves who did not comply with its policies and thus the slaves, safety by Union soldiers, were no longer slaves.
Slaves fought on both the north and the south side
The Union did well to be taken into the Union's army. Lincoln thought it was a good idea. He believed the more soldiers under Union commanders could only help end the war sooner. It's true that the Union could have won without them but the North also helped freed Black slaves with their self pride and they fought well. The South also recruited some slaves into their forces, but only a nominal amount, perhaps 5,000.
