Far too late the Confederate Congress passed a bill authorizing the enrollment of 300,000 slaves to serve in the army. This was an effort all too late as it was enacted in March of 1865.
The Confederacy did not draft slaves and free blacks into the army primarily due to a belief in white supremacy and the fear that arming enslaved individuals would lead to rebellion. Additionally, Confederate leaders prioritized maintaining the institution of slavery, viewing it as essential to their social and economic system. In 1865, near the war's end, the Confederacy did consider enlisting slaves as soldiers, but by then, it was too late to make a significant impact.
Slaves were abolished in the United States in 1865.
On the 13th of March 1865 the Confederacy approves black soldiers.
