Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was passed immediately after the Civil War on December 6, 1865. Its purpose was to abolish slavery and involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for a crime. The South had not yet been readmitted into the Union at this time, so it was not passed when the South seceded, during the Civil War, or immediately after Reconstruction.
