The northern victory in the Civil War resulted in the passage of the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery, formally granting freedom to millions of enslaved African Americans. However, the end of slavery did not eliminate systemic racism or discrimination, as many states implemented Jim Crow laws that enforced racial segregation and inequality. Economic, social, and political barriers continued to marginalize Black individuals, perpetuating a cycle of discrimination despite their legal freedom. Thus, while the war ended the institution of slavery, deeply rooted prejudices and injustices persisted in American society.

In theory, there might have been non-violent means to resolve the issue. We will never really know.
