Hola .. !
The Emancipation Proclamation was issued by Abraham Lincoln, then American President who was known for his anti-slavery views, in 1862 which granted African slaves freedom and voting rights after the American Civil War . This dimmed the Southern States who were in favour of slavery for they used them in their plants . The Southern States treated slaves as their personal property , kept them in unhygenic conditions and did not allow them to read or write. This was felt as a social injustice by the Northern States and thus the American Anti-Slavery Society was formed under William Lloyd Garrison . These emotions were strengthened by the Emancipation Proclamation .
The Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln,the great orator, is regarded as one of the most influencial speeches in the history . In that , he respected the brave soldiers who gave their lives in war and promised that their lives will not go in vain . The Speech spread the feelings of nation-pride and democracy among people . Even,the Indian Constitution's idea is taken majorly from it .
