What year was slavery abolished in America?

Answer 1

Slavery was officially abolished in the United States in 1865 (by the enactment of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution), although many states abolished slavery for themselves at various dates between 1777 and 1864 and the transport of new slaves from Africa to the US was stopped as early as 1808. Although the Founding Fathers agreed to end the importation of new slaves after 1808, the smuggling of slaves into the US continued. Based on the invention of the cotton gin, more slaves were needed to work the plantations to harvest the ever increasing demand for slaves.
Slavery ended in the United States 6 months after the civil war with the 13th Amendment. December 6, 1865.
