Discussion: "Ending Slavery Through Disunion"
Investigate the degree to which the Missouri Compromise and the Fugitive Slave Act propelled the United States to Civil War. Provide specific examples of both the significant impediments to African-Americans' service in the Civil War as well as the primary areas in which these soldiers excelled.
• Give your opinion of the fundamental reasons why Lincoln issued the Proclamation, and outline the major reasons why the Proclamation did not apply to all areas of the United States. Speculate on the extent to which Lincoln's vision of freedom for the freed people aligned with those of black soldiers and philosophers of the day. Provide a rationale for your response.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
