On January 1, 1863 he issued of the South. On January 1, 1863 he issued the Emancipation Proclamation, stating:the Emancipation Proclamation, stating:
“. . . all persons held as slaves within any state . . . in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free.”
Emancipation Proclamation
What did it do?
DID IT FREE THE SLAVES IN THE UNION?
NO! The Border States kept their slaves because they weren’t “in rebellion.”
DID IT FREE THE SLAVES IN THE SOUTH?
NOT REALLY Remember, the CSA isn’t listening to Lincoln because they are “in rebellion” DUH
Emancipation Proclamation
What did it do?
DID IT GIVE BLACKS AND SLAVES HOPE?
YES, any slave who made it to Union controlled territory was set free and over 100,000 did just that.
Furthermore, there were about 200,000 African Americans who served in the Union Armies and Navies.

Many of them were killed leading a failed Union raid of Fort Wagner outside of Charleston, SC in 1863.
Emancipation Proclamation
What did it do?
Slaves wouldn’t get freedom until much laterIn the 13th Amendment, slavery was ended, but that was in 1865.
And yet, this may be Lincoln’s most brilliant maneuver in the Civil War?
YOU BET! England and France couldn’t sell support of the CSA to their own people who were also against slavery.
Without freeing a single slave, Abraham Lincoln had officially changed the Civil War into being about ending slavery.
And they called him
“Slick!”
