Southern Slave vs. Military Laborer: Black Ambivalence Toward Joining the Union Army by Usa Clark Aprfi 17, 1996 2 Fort Sumter was under fire! The war was on! The news flashed through the cotton fields and tobacco plantations of the South. For most slaves, the commencement of the Civil War brought hope. Enslaved, oppressed, denied education and self-determination, the southern black looked with eagerness to his emancipation. In many cases, the negro slave desired to help fight his former owners, to bring down the institution of slavery. Imagine his surprise, then, upon greeting the northern army with open arms, only to be forced to serve the white officers, cook for and clean up after the troops, and perform hard, manual labor for the military. There was D~glory on the battlefield. Promises made for equal pay were broken so many times they became meaningless. The mixed emotions engendered by this reality resulted in confusion and contradiction.

    Lyman Trumbull: Author of the Thirteenth Amendment, Author of the Civil Rights Act, and the First Second Amendment Lawyer

    KOPEL (1117–1192).DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 5/2/16 4:20 PM Lyman Trumbull: Author of the Thirteenth Amendment, Author of the Civil Rights Act, and the First Second Amendment Lawyer David B. Kopel* This Article provides the first legal biography of lawyer and Senator Lyman Trumbull, one of the most important lawyers and politicians of the nineteenth century. Early in his career, as the leading anti-slavery lawyer in Illinois in the 1830s, he won the cases constricting and then abolishing slavery in that state; six decades later, Trumbull represented imprisoned labor leader Eugene Debs in the Supreme Court, and wrote the Populist Party platform. In between, Trumbull helped found the Republican Party, and served three U.S. Senate terms, chairing the judiciary committee. One of the greatest leaders of America’s “Second Founding,” Trumbull wrote the Thirteenth Amendment, the Civil Rights Act, and the Freedmen’s Bureau Act. The latter two were expressly intended to protect the Second Amendment rights of former slaves. Another Trumbull law, the Second Confiscation Act, was the first federal statute to providing for arming freedmen. After leaving the Senate, Trumbull continued his fight for arms rights for workingmen, bringing Presser v. Illinois to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1886, and Dunne v. Illinois to the Illinois Supreme Court in 1879. His 1894 Populist Party platform was a fiery affirmation of Second Amendment principles. In the decades following the end of President James Madison’s Administration in 1817, no American lawyer or legislator did as much as Trumbull in defense of Second Amendment.

    Maria Ward’s primary document project (designed with 8th graders in mind) Student objectives: ~ The student will analyze historical documents and use this knowledge to better understand Lincoln’s actions during the Civil War. ~The student will find evidence to support Lincoln’s belief that emancipation is for the purpose of saving the Union, and that it must be done in a constitutional manner. Documents: ~Abraham Lincoln’s Letter to Horace Greeley August 22, 1862 Teaching American History Ashbrook Center for Public Affairs at Ashland University http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/index.asp?subcategory=4 ~The First Confiscation Act (August 6, 1861) Freedmen & Southern Society Project http://www.history.umd.edu/Freedmen/conact1.htm ~Excerpt from the Proclamation Revoking General Hunter’s Order of Military Emancipation of May 9, 1862 Freedmen & Southern Society Project http://www.history.umd.edu/Freedmen/hunter.htm Narrative: Students will analyze Abraham Lincoln’s letter to Horace Greeley, August 22, 1862, the (first) Confiscation Act of 1861 and an excerpt from Lincoln’s the Proclamation Revoking General Hunter’s Order of Military Emancipation of May 9, 1862 to explain and support Lincoln’s belief that the purpose of the war is to save the Union, and that any action regarding the emancipation of enslaved persons should be carried out in a constitutional manner. Narrative that is more like a lesson plan: Students will first analyze Abraham Lincoln’s letter to Horace Greeley, August 22, 1862. This letter is in response to Greeley’s open letter titled, “The Prayer of Twenty Millions” in which Greeley urges Lincoln to free the slaves.

    Slavery in the United States - Wikipedia Page 1 of 25

    Slavery in the United States - Wikipedia Page 1 of 25 Slavery in the United States Slavery in the United States was the legal institution of human chattel enslavement, primarily of Africans and African Americans, that existed in the United States of America in the 18th and 19th centuries. Slavery had been practiced by Americans under British rule from early colonial days, and was legal in all Thirteen Colonies at the time of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. It lasted until the end of the American Civil War. By the time of the American Revolution (1775–1783), the status of slave had been institutionalized as a racial caste associated with African ancestry.[1] When the United States Constitution was ratified (1789), a relatively small number of free people of color were among the voting citizens (male property owners).[2] During and immediately following the Revolutionary War, abolitionist laws were passed in most Northern states and a movement developed to abolish slavery. Most of these states had a higher proportion of free labor than in the South and economies based on different industries. They abolished slavery by the end of the 18th century, some with gradual systems that kept adults as slaves for two decades. However, the rapid expansion of the cotton industry in the Deep South after the invention of the cotton gin greatly increased demand for slave labor, and the An animation showing when United States territories and states Southern states continued as slave societies. Those states attempted to extend slavery into the new Western forbade or allowed slavery, 1789–1861.
