Yes they did

See #77 in this thread.

Even the legislation passed by the rebel congress in 1865 did not do what the author of this article says it did.

The article is typical neo-confederate disinformation.

Yet the terms of enlistment for several of the black regiments that were raised in that final month did. The one that saw combat was among these and it is noted accordingly on the historical markers there.
