The Emancipation Proclamation of 1862 marked more than the ostensible freeing of slaves in the United States; it also marked the beginning of a transmigration of black people that would forever alter the culture of the country. Many ex-slaves moved north or stayed in the South; others (far fewer in number) decided to test the American dream of success in the West that stretched from the Mississippi River to California and from Canada to Mexico
