Today's Moment to Remember
... the end of slavery in America ...
Picture
[ On Jan., 31, 1865, The U.S. House of Representatives celebrates passage of the 13th Amendment = public domain image ]
 On this date, December 18, in 1865, U.S. Secretary of State, William Seward, proclaimed adoption of the Thirteenth Amendment, banning slavery throughout the United States of America and its territories.  This amendment was the first of what many call the three "Reconstruction Amendments" - putting America back together after the horrific Civil War.  The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the US Constitution, considered the "Reconstruction Amendments," ended slavery (13), outlined citizenship rights and justice for all persons (14), and gave voting rights to former slaves (15) respectively.
