Thirteenth Amendment (1865)
When America finally said, “Okay, seriously this time — slavery’s over.” The Thirteenth Amendment is the legal knockout punch that made the Emancipation Proclamation permanent. Ratified in 1865, it’s freedom written in ink, not just a speech. But it still sparks arguments about how “free” everyone actually became afterward. Iconic, historic, and forever controversial.
