Question

BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER!!!


Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was important to the Union war effort because it:

A. freed every enslaved person living in the United States and the Confederacy.


B. inspired enslaved people to launch armed attacks on Confederate troops.


C. convinced western states to send troops to the Union military.


D. demonstrated that the Union was fighting to end slavery.​

Answer 1

Answer:

I could see the answer being A or D but more likely D

Explanation:

this is because while in theory the Emancipation Proclamation did free all slaves in the states of open rebellion, it didn't actually free them, they werent free until the Union won the war. I believe D is correct, because it showed that President Lincoln was fighting to end slavery.

hope this helped :-)
