One of Douglass and Greeley’s arguments for making abolition an aim of the war. How did the Emancipation Proclamation affect enslaved people in the South?

The Emancipation Proclamation was a set of two orders issued by President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. The first was issued on September 22, 1862, declaring all slaves in all Confederate states not returning to the Union before January 1, 1863, free. The second order, issued on January 1, 1863, listed the states for which it was specifically concerned.

The Emancipation Proclamation was attacked from many sides because it released only slaves who were out of reach of the Union. In practice, it obliged the Union to end slavery, which was a controversial decision in the North States.  

After the war, the abolitionists were concerned that the proclamation was an act of war and would not permanently abolish slavery. Several former slave states passed legislation prohibiting slavery, but slavery continued to exist until a sufficient number of states ratified the 13th Amendment to the Constitution on December 18, 1865.
