The Emancipation Proclamation was dubbed as a great beacon of hope because it freed black men and women from slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation was a monumentous document that came into effect on January 1 1863 and which essentially declared "that all persons held as slaves are, and henceforward shall be free".
