The emancipation proclamation only freed slaves in rebelling statesā¦there were states that were allowed to keep their slaves during the civil war(Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, and Missouri.) they didnāt loose their slaves until the 13th amendment passedā¦the 13th amendment passed to free ALL slavesā¦so to answer ur question my source is middle school American history classšš
Correct me where Iām wrongā¦the southern strategy never happened, but democrats have went away from the confederacy while still being the confederacy and republicans who fought against slave owning democrats fly the democrat flag to āpreserve history(aka losing a war that lasted 4 years)āā¦
