Emancipation Proclamation

The Proclamation of Neutrality address was an address by George Washington in 1973. It declared that the nation would have a neutral stance in regards to the conflict between France and Great Britain.

Because it could not be enforced. Lincoln had no power over the Southern slave-masters. It also was not abolitionist, because it allowed slavery to continue in the states that had not seceded.

But it did turn the war into a moral crusade against slavery, so neither Britain nor France could be seen helping the other side.

Because he didn't want to upset powerful slave-owners in the border states, and drive them into the arms of the Confederacy.

Answer 2: Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was intended to make a statement that the war was intended to end slavery. There were many factors involved with the cause of the war however, he wanted to focus on ending slavery. He felt this would rally more people behind their cause.

Interesting that the Emancipation Proclamation did not really free any slave when it was signed. If a slave was living in a Southern state then the Proclamation had no effect until the Union army took over control of that area. There were a few examples of people in the Northern states who still owned slaves for a few years after the proclamation was released.

African-Americans were able to get better jobs, and the economy underwent an accelarated change from being commodity agriculture-based to manufacturing.

Yes.

He'd been waiting all summer (1862) for a Northern victory that would enable him to make the announcement without making it sound like a desperate measure.

A few days after the unexpected Northern vistory at Antietam, he issued the Proclamation, to be effective from January 1st 1863.

the mucker who made it wasnt thinking so i killed him

All the States except Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware, the 13th amendment then abolished in in those states.

You have to be atleast 16 years old, you have to have had a job for a minimum of one year, you have to be able to pay for car insurance and health insurance with no help of any kind. You have to have someone who will rent to you, and you have to hav enough money after utilities and rent to afford food and gas and entertainment. It will also cost around 1200 to 1500 dollars for the lawyer fees and paperwork fees. If your parents fight it and you have seen a pstchiatrist they can talk to the doctor about your mental health. It's not easy, so don't think it will be.

The emancipation of a minor by notarial act, i.e., a written document that is a type of emancipation that takes place by the declaration to that effect of the father, the mother, or both, before a notary public in the presence of two witnesses.

Louisianna is the only state I know that has this, see La. C.C. Article 366.

== == well well you have to realize that many people in the north were abolitionist and they provoked many of the people that wanted slavery and there weret

When Lincoln was president, the Emancipation Proclamation was to free all of the slaves in the Confederacy. :)

Keeping Britain and France from sending military aid to the Confederates, for fear of looking pro-slavery.

On July 22, 1862, President Lincoln surprised his cabinet by presenting to them a draft of his preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. Lincoln accepted the advice of his secretary of state, Seward to delay any action on the document until a suitable Union battlefield victory was accomplished.

The Emancipation Proclamation became effective on 1 January 1863. It called for the freeing of slaves in all states then at war against the Union. But because Lincoln had no authority over the Confederate States of America (they had their own President and Congress), it was considered more of a "political move" than anything else.

As George B. McClellan and other conservatives predicted, the Emancipation Proclamation did intensify the South's commitment for their fight for independence. This because it threatened both the property interest in slaves and the social interest in preserving White supremacy. However, it did to a certain extent drive a wedge between the owners of large plantations and the small Southern farmer.

It introduced an ethical dimension to foreign aid.

After this, free nations abroad could not support the Confederates without looking pro-slavery.

This was a bad blow to the South, which had conducted active diplomacy with Britain and France, hoping for official recognition, with ships, troops and supplies to follow.

The Proclamation was an urgent wartime measure, aimed at keeping Britain and France out of the war.

The mid-term elections did not show much support for it at home - reminding us of the basic fact that most Northerners were not Abolitionists.

The presence of more and more black soldiers in Northern uniform slowly started to influence American opinion about blacks as potentially equal citizens.

freedom of slaves and equality of all men

They all pointed out the evils of slavery

A Proclamation is not an Act.

Lincoln's Proclamation simply 'proclaimed' that all slaves in the rebel states would be considered free from January 1st 1863, and that Union troops were licensed to liberate any slaves they came across in their Southern campaigns.

It looked like a failed human-rights document, making empty threats to all the states that he didn't control.

In fact, the most urgent reason for issuing it was to keep Britain and France from sending aid to the South. By turning the war into an official crusade against slavery, Lincoln made it impossible for free nations abroad to recognise the Confederacy without looking pro-slavery themselves.

In this, it was totally successful, and ended Lincoln's nightmare-prospect of foreign intervention on the side of the enemy.

But the troops were also able to damage the Southern economy by reducing their workforce, and putting these freed blacks to work in the service of the Union armies.

Keep Britain and France from helping the Confederates, as it would make them look pro-slavery themselves.

No, it stated that all slaves held in the rebellious states were emancipated (freed) from their plantations. Of course, since the states were in rebellion, it did not help the slaves all that much. However, since Lincoln was smart, he did not want to emancipate slaves in the border slave states that had not yet seceded from the Union, knowing that if he did, they would leave. This would take much of the supplies and much needed population that they would require for the war. It was merely a document written to let the South know that once the Union gained control again, they meant business; slavery was out of the question. For good.

Shamed the British and French out of sending aid to the Confederates, for fear of looking pro-slavery.
