It's a shame to see how long it took Americans to give blacks equal rights after their emancipation. This speech was one of the defining movements in US History that helped pave the way for equality for all people.

I cannot even imagine being an African American during the time when the thirteenth amendment was passed. They were finally announced free, however were not truly free for a long time after that.

This is one of the most recognizable speeches in American culture and for good reason. It is moving and inspirational. Also it helped fix one of the biggest problems that existed with our nation.
