Emancipation Proclamation

The proclamation of 1863 declared "forever free" the slaves of the Confederate states in rebellion. Blacks in loyal border states were not affected, nor were those in specific conquered areas in the south this was about 800,000. The tone of the document was rather dull and very legal with no real call to achieve freedom for slaves. The passage of the act did not formally strike the shackles from a single slave. Where he could free them, he refused to do so because it applied to the confederate states. It was a strong proclamation and less of an emancipation. Yet, unofficial liberation took place because thousands of slaves when they heard about the proclamation flocked to Union army camps. Lincoln's goal was not so much to liberate people, but to make the moral cause of the Union stronger at home and abroad.

Mainly Tennessee, where Lincoln allowed the planters to continue pracising slavery, as the state had largely been reclaimed by the Union.

The Emancipation Proclamation states simply that all black slaves should be free. That ALL slaves any color, size or shape should be free. Men were created equal and President Lincoln knew that. He decided he needed to do something about it. So he got pen and paper, sat down and started to write. On January 1, 1863 the Proclamation was issued.

An official public proclamation or order is a formal announcement issued by a government authority or organization that communicates important information or directives to the public. It often addresses matters of law, policy, or significant events and is intended to inform citizens, guide behavior, or announce changes in regulations. Proclamations can cover various topics, including public health, safety, or celebrations, and they are typically made through official channels to ensure widespread dissemination.

Emancipation Proclamation

If the state you live in has an emancipation statute, you have to meet those requirements. Typically they include being able to take care of yourself financially and physically and have parental permission.

The Emancipation Proclamation was never a law. It was an executive action used as a war measure in the US Civil War.

Slaves in the North and parts of the South that had been captured by the Union were not freed by the Emancipation Proclamation and would have to wait until __________ to get freedom.

For Some, it changed their opinion on slavery but for others, it made them feel angry with President Lincoln because not all of Union believed slavery was wrong and some even believed that slavery was the right thing to have in America.

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.
