The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 proclaimed for all states rebelling to emancipate/free slaves. This Proclamation did not however affect the slavery of the states that were loyal to the Union, though they were still eventually freed. The Confederacy did not release their slaves however upon hearing this. Though when the slaves heard, some of them fled to the Union.

Slaves wanted to make it all the way to Canada because even though they were technically free in the North, they still had almost no rights and were still extremely discriminated against.and the masters still had the right to take the slaves back.
No. She was a slave. In Africa. Even though shes' white and lived in Alabama where slaves were illigal.
Because she wanted to free other slaves
because they said "slaves are property" and said that the Missouri compromise was unconstitutional and they wanted to keep slaves out of western territory and any slaves found free would be back in captivity and even though Dred Scott was free for 19 years they still made him to be a slave because of the Dred Scott vs. Sanford .That is how Dred Scott was discriminated.
It depended on the slave owner on whether or not the slaves had to work on holidays. The slaves did do different things on their free time, though. They would make music, or even make crafts. They were still real people that were capable of being independent and doing something. This is Webmaster John n' jahn...
Yes and no. Even though there was institutional slavery, but there was discrimination even in the north. Exslaves also had to be careful because under Fugitive laws they could be considered property and returned to the plantation owners.

No, once they got off their plantations they were not considered free. They were still the owners. The slaves went to Philidelphia and once they got there they were considered free people.
