| | The Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January 1, 1863 by President Abraham Lincoln, freed all slaves in the United States except slaveholding border states which had not seceded from the Union, and those states already under Union control. | | | Following the noted abuses of the loophole in the Irish Constitution a referendum on the issue was held. | | | For example, there have been issues with darker-skinned African-Americans disliking lighter-skinned African-Americans because of their lighter shade of skin, which may be associated with White parentage at some point in their genealogy (but may also not). |
