That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom ... Who will enforce this document? enslaved people in the United States state government officials in the United States people in designated parts of the United States soldiers and sailors of the United States
please help :(
Which one do you think it is? (:
id go with B
Yep, because in the middle of the paragraph is says: "and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons" Telling state government officials to maintain the freedom of such people. (:

Yeah, just tag me in them (:

that passage does not include the state governments. the executive government is the national level not state.

the states were told to carry it out but the executive and the military were responsible fro enforcing it
