The Emancipation Proclamation changed the Civil War and America forever and President Lincoln's decision to issue the Emancipation Proclamation was one of the most important he made as president. This episode teaches how Lincoln's goal changed from just saving the Union during the Civil War to also freeing the enslaved people in America.
Covering how the Emancipation Proclamation helped the Union win the war with the use of Black troops, but this also teaches the limitations of the Emancipation Proclamation- how the enslaved people of the Border States were not freed and how Confederates resisted his order. In the end, students learn how the war not only saved the Union but led to a, "New birth of freedom" with the 13th amendment and teaches the story of Juneteenth as well!
