Emancipation Proclamation Turns 150

Some interesting book discussions on C-SPAN on the event, working with legislative action (including preventing the military to send fugitive slaves back) to show what happened when (often voluntary) continual federal support of slavery went the other way. It also suggests constitutional flexibility, when desired, so this sort of thing is a tad overblown.
