Answer:

A. True. The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, declared all enslaved people in the Confederate states “forever free.” Though not completely successful in its immediate goals, it enabled the Union army to recruit African-American soldiers and helped pave the way for the eventual abolition of slavery.
