À propos de ce contenu audio

Music critic turned historian Lenny Vaughn traces the complex path from slavery to emancipation, explaining why freedom took over two years to reach enslaved people in Texas after the Emancipation Proclamation. From the economic foundations of American slavery through the Constitutional Convention's compromises, the growing tensions between free and slave states, Lincoln's careful political maneuvering, and the Civil War's transformation from a fight to preserve the Union into a war for human freedom. Vaughn explores how the Emancipation Proclamation's limitations, communication delays, and Confederate resistance created the conditions that made June 19, 1865, such a momentous day in Galveston when federal troops finally arrived to enforce freedom in the most remote corners of the former Confederacy.
