  The Emancipation Proclamation, Smithsonian Edition

  An important piece of American history and justice Abraham Lincoln considered the Emancipation Proclamation the crowning achievement of his presidency and it is easy to see why. The executive order, which freed enslaved African Americans in the Confederate states, was a groundbreaking decision. While the Constitution limited the president's power to end slavery, Lincoln took advantage of wartime and issued the proclamation under his authority as Commander-in-Chief to claim it as a necessary war measure. This decorative Smithsonian edition includes Lincoln's executive order, as well as writings that lent to its foundation, and features an illuminating introduction from the Smithsonian Institution, providing an important perspective from a leading voice and authority of American history. The Emancipation Proclamation was issued on January 1, 1863, but Texas was the last Confederate state to have the proclamation announced two years later on June 19. It became a joyous holiday called Juneteenth that is celebrated to this day by the African American community, showing the enduring power of the transformative document. This handsome book captures a revolutionary moment that changed the course of the Civil War and served as the precursor to the Thirteenth Amendment, which officially abolished slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation is an imperative document that symbolizes a turning point in the struggle for African American equality.

  The Emancipation Proclamation, Hörbuch, Digital, 7min

  The Emancipation Proclamation was a presidential proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, as a war measure during the American Civil War, directed to all of the areas in rebellion and all segments of the Executive branch (including the Army and Navy) of the United States. It proclaimed the freedom of slaves in the eleven states that were still in rebellion, excluding areas controlled by the Union and thus applying to 3 million of the 4 million slaves in the U.S. at the time. The Proclamation was based on the president's constitutional authority as commander in chief of the armed forces; it was not a law passed by Congress. The Proclamation also ordered that suitable persons among those freed could be enrolled into the paid service of United States' forces, and ordered the Union Army (and all segments of the Executive branch) to "recognize and maintain the freedom of" the ex-slaves. The Proclamation did not compensate the owners, did not outlaw slavery, and did not grant citizenship to the ex-slaves (called freedmen). It made the eradication of slavery an explicit war goal, in addition to the goal of reuniting the Union. Language: English. Narrator: John Greenman.
