10. according to president lincoln what could african americans who were in suitable condition be received into?

answer:

president abraham lincoln signed the emancipation proclamation on january 1, 1863,: “all persons held as slaves within any states…in rebellion against the united states,” it declared, “shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free.” (the more than 1 million slaves in the loyal border states and the union-occupied parts of louisiana and virginia were not affected by this proclamation.) it also declared that “such persons [that is, african-american men] of suitable condition, will be received into the armed service of the united states.” for the first time, black soldiers could fight for the u.s. army. the 54th massachusetts volunteer infantry regiment was one of the first official black units in the u.s. armed forces. their courageous assault on fort wagner played a key role in bringing about an end to slavery.

a white man’s war

african american soldiers had fought in the revolutionary war and unofficially fought in the war of 1812, but state militias had excluded blacks since 1792. the u.s. army had never accepted black soldiers. the u.s. navy, on the other hand, was more progressive: there, african-americans had been serving as shipboard firemen, stewards, coal heavers and even boat pilots since 1861. sixteen black soldiers won the congressional medal of honor for their brave service in the civil war.

after the civil war had broken out, abolitionists such as frederick douglass argued that the enlistment of african american soldiers would the north win the war. he also added that there would be a huge step in the fight for equal rights. “once let the black man get upon his person the brass letters, u.s.; let him get an eagle on his button, and a musket on his shoulder and bullets in his pocket,” douglass said, “and there is no power on earth which can deny that he has earned the right to citizenship.” however, this is just what president lincoln was afraid of: he worried that arming african americans, particularly former or escaped slaves, would push the loyal border states to secede. this, in turn, would make it almost impossible for the union to win the war.
