that's right
Slave states that did not secede or rebel did not have to comply with the proclamation
I believe there were 4 such states
Even if we count it, three years is crazy fast for such a change in the social order. Think about how many parents thought for sure they'd have their kids sold off and that they'd all die enslaved, but then got to live out relatively normal lives. It's crazy to think about.
