The common misconception is that it ended (in the US) when Abraham Why_did_slavery_endSigned and approved the emancipation Proclamation.
This is, however, wrong. The Emancipation Proclamation only officially ended slavery for slaves in "rebellious" states... i.e. just those that denied that the government of which Lincoln was president had any power over them.
It did have one immediate effect: the Union Army stopped treating captured slaves as "contraband enemy property" and began immediately freeing them. However, slavery didn't officially end in the US as a whole until December 6, 1865, when Why_did_slavery_endratified the 13th Amendment pushing it over the requirement of ratification by at least 3/4 of the states and making it a part of the US Constitution.
It also might be noted that while the 13th amendment freed slaves in general, it expressly permits involuntary servitude as punishment for crimes. Slavery in that sense is technically still constitutional under US law, though it's since been abolished by all states individually with the last being Why_did_slavery_endin 1927.
It is still endemic in many parts of the world.
