	E. Statement of Historical Contexts
		Since the northern states were not yet "free" states, their only recourse was to cross an international border, pass themselves as free in a new region, or live outside society.
		An example of the latter would be African American war-related efforts to leave the United States during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, to sue for freedom on the basis of military service, and to organize slave rebellions as in the Stono Rebellion (1739), Gabriel's Conspiracy (1800) and that of Denmark Vesey (1823).
		The entry of African American units into the Union Army and the encampment of thousands of "contrabands" in and near the Union Army constituted a de facto emancipation even before the Emancipation Proclamation was announced after the battle of Antietam in October, 1862 or went into effect on the first of January, 1863.
