About this listen
On January 1, 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect, but it did not “free the slaves.”
In truth, the Emancipation Proclamation was extremely limited, provisional, and conditional.
That does not mean it was not important, meaningful, or didn't matter.
Historical accuracy is important, and by the end of this episode you will be able to name precisely what the Emancipation Proclamation did and didn’t do as well as its connection to the Black Christian community.
In this episode, I take you through the history of the:
- Compensated Emancipation Act (1862)
- Emancipation Proclamation (1863)
- 13th Amendment (1865)
- Watch Night Service
