Dunmore's Proclamation is a historical document signed on November 7, 1775, by John Murray, 4th Earl of Dunmore, royal governor of the British Colony of Virginia. The proclamation declared martial law and promised freedom for slaves of American revolutionaries who left their owners and joined the royal forces, becoming Black Loyalists. Most relevant historians agree that the proclamation was chiefly designed for practical and militaristic reasons rather than moral reasons, such as humanitarianism.

Earl of Dunmore, dem königlichen Gouverneur der britischen Kolonie Virginia, unterzeichnet wurde. Die Proklamation erklärte den Ausnahmezustand und versprach denjenigen im Besitz aufständischer Kolonisten befindlichen Sklaven die Freiheit, die ihren Eigentümern entflohen und sich den königlichen Streitkräften anschlossen, um zu werden. Historikern zufolge war die Proklamation allerdings eher aus praktischen und militärischen Gründen veranlasst worden, als dass ihr moralische oder humanitäre Aspekte zu Grunde lagen. Ungeachtet ihrer pragmatischen Zielsetzung bildete sie dennoch einen wichtigen historischen Meilenstein. Mit ihr wurde die freie Willensäußerung versklavter Menschen höherwertiger a (de) Dunmore's Proclamation is a historical document signed on November 7, 1775, by John Murray, 4th Earl of Dunmore, royal governor of the British Colony of Virginia.
