(pg. 368-369) • Example: [EQ Goes Here] I believe that the significance of the Emancipation Proclamation was…blah blah, blah. I believe this because…blah blah blah, blah blah [in other words, the evidence for your belief] • Simply read the Emancipation Proclamationand/or the commentary handout and formulate your own opinion • The more serious you takethis the better your answer will be

  5. Emancipation Proclamation • Lincoln, amid growing war casualties, used the Union victory at Antietam to issue the Emancipation Proclamation in September 1862. • The Proclamation: • freed only those slaves in the states in rebellion • did not free the slaves in the border states • gave the UnionArmy another reasonto fight: theliberation of slaves Which slave states were unaffected by the Proclamation? Why did Lincoln plan this?

  6. Essential Question - 5 • What efforts did President Lincoln make to preserve the Union during the Civil War? • Examine: • Second Inaugural Address • Gettysburg Speech • Use of emergency powers such as the suspension of habeas corpus • Emancipation Proclamation [EQ Goes Here] Effort Description 2nd Inaugural Address (pg. 391) GettysburgSpeech (pg. 385) Suspension of Habeas Corpus (pg. 375) • On the Back of Page 5 • Evaluate the characterof Abraham Lincoln • Saint or Sinner? EmancipationProclamation (pg. 368)

  7. Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address • Abraham Lincoln delivered his second inaugural address on March 4, 1865 • During his inauguration at the start of his second term as President of the United States • Lincoln did not speak of happiness, but of sadness • Some see this speech as a defense of his pragmatic approach to Reconstruction, in which he sought to avoid harsh treatment of the defeated South by reminding his listeners of how wrong both sides had been in imagining what lay before them when the war began four years earlier. • Lincoln balanced that rejection of triumphalism, however, with a recognition of the unmistakable evil of slavery, which he described in the most concrete terms possible • Unbeknownst to him, John Wilkes Booth, David Herold, George Atzerodt, Lewis Paine, John Surratt and Edmund Spangler, a few of the conspirators involved with his assassination were present in the crowd at the inauguration.

  8. Lincoln suspends habeas corpus (1862) • The writs of habeas corpus are a person’s right not to be imprisoned unless charged with a crime and given a trial • Lincoln suspended these common rights in an effort to stop anyone from supporting the Confederate cause and to prevent those who encouraged others to resist the draft (conscription) • The suspension of habeas corpus was the result of draft riots in many northern cities

  9. Gettysburg Address • In November 1863, Lincoln gave his now famous speech at Gettysburg to dedicate the Gettysburg National Cemetery • Lincoln used the speech to redefine the purpose of fighting the war: the reunification of the Union • http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/gettysburgaddress.htm
