Late night open thread

On this day in 1862 President Abraham Lincoln issued the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation which set forth the process of freeing the slaves and changed the crux of the war to be solely about slavery and in this masterstroke kept France and England from recognizing and doing business with the confederate states. Smart man, that Lincoln.
