The Thirteenth Amendment was a turning point in history because it abolished slavery, was the beginning of equal rights for African Americans, and it led to civil rights for other minorities.
The 13th amendment was proposed while the United States was in great conflict. The Civil War was raging and costing many Americans their lives. Various states had seceded because they did not agree with the policies and ideas of the government. During this conflict, friends and neighbors were fighting against each other due to many conflicts, including slavery.
