The Emancipation Proclamation: Myths and Realities

Tuesday, Mar 6, 2012 6:30p to 8:00p

James Oakes, Ph.D., City University of New York

By early 1864, Republican policy makers realized that the Proclamation was not enough to secure the complete destruction of slavery. The question remains: What did the Emancipation Proclamation actually do?
