This Day in History on September 22: Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation Issued
September 22 has been a date marked by pivotal events that have shaped the course of history across the globe. Going back in history, September 22, 1862, saw U.S. President Abraham Lincoln issue the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation during the American Civil War. This executive order declared that enslaved people in the Confederate states would be set free as of January 1, 1863. While it did not immediately free all enslaved individuals, it was a powerful step toward the abolition of slavery in the United States and reshaped the war’s moral and political goals. Lincoln’s proclamation laid the groundwork for the eventual passage of the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery entirely. In the realm of science and innovation, September 22, 1975, marks the launch of the Soviet spacecraft Venera 9, which would later become the first spacecraft to send back images from the surface of Venus. This mission was a significant milestone in planetary exploration, providing invaluable
