The American Civil War began in April 1861 as a response to preserve the United States. Within a month, enslaved African Americans seeking shelter behind Union lines shifted the war’s objectives. Many U.S. Army leaders, such as Major General Benjamin Butler, were unwilling to return these individuals to their disloyal enslavers. Hoping to deny the Confederacy of its labor force, U.S. officials recognized these self-emancipated people and harbored them as “contraband of war.” By running away from slavery, these Black Americans helped make emancipation a strategical component of preserving the Union.

Many companies are now finding themselves navigating a new world as they decide if and how to bring their employees back to the office.
David Lewis, CEO of human resources consulting group Operations Inc., said his Norwalk-based team has fielded many calls over the past 14 months from HR departments on how to navigate this new normal.
“Now companies are asking a lot of questions related to how soon they should reopen,” said Lewis.
Lewis said now that CDC guidance has changed and restrictions have been lifted, the companies that try to return to their pre-COVID policies right away will struggle the most to retain employees.
