Answer 1

The Emancipation Proclamation DID NOT officially or practically end slavery in the United States.

Ironically Lincoln's edict only freed slaves where the Union was powerless to enforce the policy, namely in the states which had left the United States and formed the Confederacy.

The Emancipation Proclamation had no effect on slaves held in Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware and western Virgina (This was part of Virginia that refused to leave the Union. It was later renamed West Virginia and became a separate state) All these were called Border States, slave-holding states which remained loyal to the Union.

Slavery ended officially in the United States on December 18, 1865, the date of ratification of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution.

Answer 2

President Lincoln announced a preliminary version of the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862, to go into effect on January 1,1863. It freed only the slaves in "territories still in rebellion," so that many people have argued that it didn't free ANYONE, but it guaranteed that all runaway slaves then living in Federal territory were no longer subject to the Fugitive Slave Act, and it gave the North a noble cause to fight for. As for the border states (i. e. the slave states that didn't secede), all but Delaware and Kentucky freed their slaves by the end of the Civil War, and the Thirteenth Amendment, proposed in January 1865, when Lincoln was still alive, and ratified in December that year, definitely abolished all "involuntary servitude."

So a short answer to your question is that slavery was dead by the end of 1865.

Answer 3

Slavery in America ended when the civil war was over (1865). The 13th amendment was the official declaring that slavery was unconstitutional.

However, after the civil war, most blacks were poor and a racist sentiment developed for them in the South.

Answer 4

Slavery officially ended in the US with the Emancipation Proclamation. Unofficially, it continued in the states that were not rebelling against the Union for a few more years.

As for blacks being beaten, that happened after slavery ended. Uppity blacks who weren't willing to accept a pittance of a wage were beaten as if they were still slaves.

Answer 5

Slavery still exists in places such as Saudi Arabia.
