How Did The Civil War Never End Slavery

The Civil War never ended slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation, a document written by Abraham Lincoln, our Sixteenth President, made the war about slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves in the United States of America as well as the Confederate States of America, but not in border states. These included Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, and later, West Virginia, which were vital to have under Union control to help win the Civil War. Even then, with the Emancipation Proclamation, slavery was still occurring. It was not until the Thirteenth Amendment, that it became illegal. In the Reconstruction Era, things remained relatively the same, African Americans did most of the labor intensive work, and sometimes received a small salary, and the rest of the white population continued our normal industrial work, which was now spreading nation wide. The US was divided by labor forces that would clash, and eventually resolve and pass the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth Amendments causing counteractive actions, making slavery hard to stop, because of pervious economy that happens again.

This means that there is slave labor, or voluntary freeman labor. Slavery was prevalent in every society at one time or another. People believed that for the well being of their State and Country and to them as well, this was fine. These tasks were the hard and laborious tasks that no one wanted to do, however this system brought in money. This allowed for the Southern white race to feel that they should not have to do this work. The North thought that Slavery should be outlawed. They clearly showed that it was not needed with the industry they had created. These tensions would worsen and we would eventually fight until one or the other could no longer. Knowing this people awaited the arrival of the war, and ultimately for voluntary freemen labor. (Document
