    Not sure you get what the emancipation. Proclamation was.

    Since it only freed the slaves in the south. It very much was an additional right since the northern slaves were still slaves. The two groups were not equal under the law.

      Yikes your thinking is so childish. Group A gets 10$ every week while group B always gets 5$. By your logic, once group B gets 10$ they now have “additional rights” by getting 5 “extra” dollars

      This is your response to everything. “Well, they were slaves before but now that they’re free that basically means they now have additional rights”

      No my dude lol. This isn’t complicated
