Emancipation Proclamation On View At Henry Ford Museum

If anyone remembers, there was the reading of the U.S. Constitution on the floor of the House of Representatives.  This was a selective reading of one of the most powerful documents in the world, where the elected majority, touted a denial of history by omitting the sections of slavery.

The Emancipation Proclamation was the beginning of the civil rights movement with civil rights being the rights to a promulgate a civil society.  We have not only forgotten what civility is, but the concept of peace.

The Henry Ford Museum, Dearborn, Michigan, is allowing the opportunity for anyone and everyone to view the original Emancipation Proclamation for free.  The "Discovering the Civil War" event is open to the public for a continuous 36 hours, until 6:00 a.m., June 22, 2011, on loan from the National Archives,

"Only in a democracy can you get this reevaluation of history," U.S. Rep. John Conyers told FOX 2.


For those who may not be able to view the documents up front and personal, here is one of the posters that was sent out throughout the States during the Civil War.

Also on view is the original draft of the 13th Amendment.

Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

The Emancipation Proclamation exists as a constant reminder of the magnanimous powers of the Constitution and should be read in tangent with the Original Parchment, as a living, breathing reminder of what we should never allow our elected leaders to ever forget that the original intent was to develop a civil society of peace, where all men were created equal.

Article I. Section. 9.

Clause 1: The Migration or Importation of such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit, shall not be prohibited by the Congress prior to the Year one thousand eight hundred and eight, but a Tax or duty may be imposed on such Importation, not exceeding ten dollars for each Person. 

Article I. Section 2. Paragraph 3.


Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.

This is the original parental rights doctrine, the preservation of the family.
