Lincoln decides to change his official stand on slavery because of antislavery sentiment at home and abroad. The correct answer is A.

Abraham Lincoln was widely regarded as the great emancipator because he claimed that he was antislavery: he was against the expansion of slavery.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

Abraham believed slavery was morally wrong but his views regarding racial equality sometimes contradicts some of his stance on slavery.

In the 1850s, some heavyweight politicians in the United States attacked Abraham Lincoln as an abolitionists.  Abolitionism was a movement in the United States which advocated for the end of slavery.

At a point, Abraham Lincoln wanted the states to acquire all the slaves to free them.

Also, in the mid-1863, Lincoln supported the idea that African Americans that were serving the military be allowed to remain in the United States

However, Abraham Lincoln's efforts to ensure that the states purchase the entire slaves in the United States and release them were not successful but in January 1863, President Abraham Lincoln exercised his war power granted by the constitution to issue emancipation proclamation.

The emancipation proclamation freed the entire slaves in the confederate areas. About tens of thousands of slaves were freed immediately the emancipation proclamation was issued and by June 1865, the last sets of slaves in Texas also gained their freedom.
