Professor Christopher E. Manning of Loyola University of Chicago explains what the Emancipation Proclamation is, its limitations and it's importance. Although it did not bring slavery to an end, or free all enslaved people, and only applied to states that were in open rebellion against the Union and not already under Union control, it did shift the focus of the Civil War towards abolishing the institution of slavery throughout the United States. .

Not afraid, just to lazy to look to more than one place for information, or even read what they are talking about. How many times is the word except in The Emancipation Proclamation¿. I see red when people say it freed the slaves. It didn't do squat,
pog

Please read the document.It only freed. The portion of the states that were not under the control of the union. What about the slaves in the north. Lincoln said if he could save the union by freeing all the slaves or enslaving all the blacks he would do it. It was about money. Taxes were being raised. The richest state in the country was Mississippi, couldn't let that get away. More info available from several sources. Do more research.
You have no idea what you are talking about. Of course the EP didn't free slaves in the North. It was a war measure! It could only apply to the parts of the country that were at war with the Union. Freeing the slaves in the Union states required a constitutional amendment, something Lincoln had no ability whatsoever to pass (The president is not involved in the amendment process).
The Civil War was about money, in that slavery was so profitable that the South was not willing to peacefully let it go into terminal decline. As for Mississippi, they made their cause perfectly clear:
_"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin."_ --Mississippi Declaration of Secession.
Another, "So, why didn't he free the slaves up North?"
If the Emancipation Proclamation said, "All persons held as slaves within ANY STATE or designated part of a State.... shall be then forever free." that means ALL States. Where are you getting your information that not all States were included in this Proclamation?
"That on the 1st day of January, A.D. 1863, all persons held as
slaves within any State or designated part of a State the people
whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States shall
be then, thenceforward, and forever free"
In other words, no, that's not what it said. And as for a source, just look it up Cinnamon.
I could be wrong, but isn't the whole point of the war? For equal rights, all States (as in status as well) have equal speech?
Sorry, I'm not American, but it seems like there's a lot of miscommunication going on here.

Not necessarily. The war originally began as an argument of the unbalanced state powers ( slave vs. free) because of the new territory gained after the mexican-american war; in short, it was more of a political and militant battle. However, due to Lincon needing to justify the bloodshed during the battle of Antietam, the preliminary emancipation proclamation was sent as a warning to the south, that if they didn't join the union then the slaves occupying the south would be emancipated. This then changed the focal point of the war from political power to the idea of morality.
I'm currently an undergrad student in study, so if there are any mistakes please correct me.
@@ceralain7264 Lincoln didn't issue the EP to justify the bloodshed at Antietam, it's the other way around. Lincoln had been wanting to issue the EP for quite some time, but felt he needed a significant military victory in order to do so. Without a victory, the EP would just look like a despate act from a loser and would actually hurt the Union cause. Antietam gave him the victory he was looking for. Despite the horrific carnage, and the Union taking more total casaulties, Antietam was still an important military victory, as it drove Lee's army out of Maryland while destroying nearly 25% of it. It was the first time since Lee had taken over as commander of the Army of Northern Virginia that he had lost an entire campaign.
So no, the EP wasn't a justification for Antietam, Antietam was a justification for the EP.
Finally, the EP didn't change the focal point of the war, which was always about slavery. It was about slavery because the South made it so. They seceded and started the war to preserve slavery forever. The problem with too many people is that they keep focusing on the North when looking for the cause of the war, as if the South had no say in the matter. But the South did determine the cause, because it was their rebellion, not the North's.
As Lincoln said in his second inuaguraiton speech: _"One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves, not distributed generally over the Union, but localized in the southern part of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar and powerful interest. All knew that this interest was somehow the cause of the war. To strengthen, perpetuate, and extend this interest was the object for which the insurgents would rend the Union even by war, while the Government claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial enlargement of it."_
