Antietam
The Battle of Antietam, fought on September 17, 1862, was a pivotal moment that led Abraham Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. After the Union's strategic victory, Lincoln felt empowered to take a stronger stance against slavery, stating that if the war continued, he would take steps to end it in the Southern states. This decision marked a significant shift in the Union's war aims, linking the fight against the Confederacy with the abolition of slavery.
Abraham Lincoln was against the act of slavery. Lincoln took part in the Civil war as a leader in the battle.
Antietam
Antietam (Sharpsburg) was the Union vixctory in September 1862 that gave Lincoln the credibility to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, liberating the slaves in the rebel-states - in theory, but not of course in practice, since he did not control those states.
Abraham Lincoln went to see the battle field two weeks after the battle was fought.
Abraham Lincoln stated the Gettysburg Address after the Pennsylvania civil war.
