Interestingly, January 2023 marked the 160th anniversary since the Emancipation Proclamation was signed by President Lincoln, which people believed freed slaves throughout the nation.”¯”¯And yet, for all of its celebratory flare, the presidential order only partially achieved what it was lauded for. The moral and symbolic power of the executive order and public policy, as profound as it ... Read More
