What was the emancipation procimation?

It was a proclamation issued by Lincoln which freed all the slaves in states which were in rebellion (that is, the Confederate states during the Civil War). Lincoln threatened to free the slaves as a way to leverage the Confederacy into rejoining the Union. The Confederates refused. Lincoln followed through on his threat. Despite what many think, the Emancipation Proclamation did not free all slaves, only those in states which had seceded. Slaves in other states had to wait until the adoption of the 13th Amendment before they received their freedom.


Why did the south accept Johnson Reconstruction plan?

The South accepted President Andrew Johnson's Reconstruction plan largely because it offered leniency and a swift path to rejoining the Union after the Civil War. Johnson's approach allowed Southern states to regain their governments with minimal requirements, such as the ratification of the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery. This leniency appealed to many Southern leaders who sought to restore their political power and economic systems quickly. Additionally, Johnson's sympathy towards the South and his opposition to more stringent measures from Congress made his plan more palatable to Southern interests.


How do you decide whether to quit something like a club or not?

I am dealing with the same problem- I don't know if i should quit a club i have been involved in- deeply involved in- for the past six years. My best friend in it quit, and i have reached a set of questions debating if i should do the same. 1. How will your decision affect your daily life and emotions? 2. How will your decision affect others? This is a big question- when my friend quit, i cried for three days because i couldn't imagine doing this without her. 3. Why do you want to quit? 4. Are you thinking of rejoining again later? It is sometimes difficult to rejoin something. 5. What are the aspects of the club that you like? Dislike? If one outweighs the other, make sure to consider it in your choice, but don't depend only on that. I hope this helps you. For me, i still have no idea what to do.
