It gave Lincoln the credibility to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, which kept Britain and France from helping the South. (It would have made them look pro-slavery themselves.)
In what year was segregation between white and blacks abolished in the US?
Lincoln issued Emancipation Proclamation in January 1,1863 and slavery was abolished in 1865 after Civil War between the north and south. Radical Republicans attempted to integrate blacks during Reconstruction but failed. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 ended legal segregation but racism's vestiges continue to this day. From Akatsukiiub1

How did John Brown help the slaves?
John Brown led the raid at Harper's Ferry in 1859 and electrified the slaves into action. Ultimately, His actions led to the Civil war, which led to the Emancipation Proclamation. So essentially, John Brown's actions freed the slaves even though the Raid failed miserably
Where did the Emancipation Proclamation not free people?
The Emancipation Proclamation specifically only freed slaves in those states "the people whereof shall be in rebellion against the United States". In other words, it did NOT free slaves in the four slave states which had not seceded (Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware), nor in Tennessee (which was occupied and effectively controlled by Union troops and therefore not "in rebellion"), nor in that portion of Virginia which would become West Virginia (which had seceded from Virginia when Virginia seceded from the Union). It also was not considered to apply to the southern part of Louisiana, which was under Union control at the time.Missouri was a complicated case; a portion of the government had voted to secede, but it wasn't the portion that actually had the power to do so, so it was considered by the Union to be a Union state and by the Confederacy to be a Confederate state with a government-in-exile. In any event, the Proclamation was held not to apply to Missouri.Slavery did not officially end in these areas until either the states themselves ended it, or until 1865, when the 13th amendment which abolished slavery in the entire US was ratified.Also, in practice, the only immediate effect of the Emancipation Proclamation was that slaves in captured by Union troops became free citizens rather than "contraband" (which is what they had been legally considered up to that point), since the portions of the Confederacy which were actually under Confederate control did not recognize the legality of the Emancipation Proclamation.

What was Battle of Antietam a major victory?
It was a highly significant battle, though not much to McClellan's credit. He had had extraordinary luck in intercepting a file of Lee's orders, but failed to follow it up quickly enough to destroy the enemy, and then failed to to pursue effectively afterwards. The outcome was that Lincoln now had enough credibility to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, so that free nations abroad could no longer help the Confederates without looking pro-slavery.
What did the south strategy to win foreign support depend?
Britain decided the test of Confederate viability would be whether Lee succeeded in his invasion of the North in September 1862. When this failed, Lincoln felt confident enough to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. After that, free nations abroad could not aid the Confederates without looking pro-slavery themselves.

Why did Lincoln announce his plan to free all slaves soon after the battle of Antietam?
Lincoln's first goal was to preserve the Union. However, he did want to free the slaves but did not want to upset the South more then they already were. The Union victory at Antietam gave Lincoln the confidence to pass the Emancipation Proclamation. It created great excitement, but its many loopholes failed to free any slaves.
