Battle of Midway
Following the attack on Peal Harbor, Japanese armies rolled over Southeast Asia, the Philippines, and the East Indies. The war in the Pacific was fought on land, at sea, and in the air. The turning point in the war in the Pacific came in June, 1942 at the Battle of Midway. In a four day battle fought between aircraft based on giant aircraft carriers, the U.S. destroyed hundreds of Japanese planes and regained control of the Pacific. The Japanese continued to fight on, however, even after the war in Europe ended. Stalingrad
On June 22, 1941, four million troops poured over the Russian border. Within one month, over two and half million Russians had been killed, wounded or captured. The Germans made tremendous advances into Russia – into portions of Moscow, Leningrad, and Stalingrad.
And then winter hit. The Germans were caught in summer uniforms, and it was a bitter, cold winter that year.
Stalin, using sheer force of numbers, threw another two million soldiers at the Germans.

In the spring of the next year (1943), another German offensive was launched especially around the approaches to Stalingrad. What followed can only be described as a nine-month titanic battle, with the result that the German Sixth Army in Russia was almost completely destroyed. That was the beginning of the end for Germany, but it would take three more years of desperate fighting, and millions and millions of people dead before it was all over.
D-Day
On D-Day, June 6, 1944 , General Dwight Eisenhower led U.S. and Allied troops in an invasion of Normandy, France. The armies fought their way through France and Belgium and into Germany while Russian troops fought from the east. On May 7, 1945, Germany surrendered. Hiroshima and Nagasaki
The Japanese fought on even after the war in Europe ended. Truman decided to use the newly developed atomic bomb to end the war quickly and prevent more U.S. casualties. The Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945, killing about 78,000 people and injuring 100,000 more. On August 9, a second bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, killing another 40,000 people. Anti-semitism
In part, the Nazi party gained popularity by disseminating anti-Jewish propaganda. Millions bought Hitler's book Mein Kampf (My Struggle), which called for the removal of Jews from Germany. With the Nazi rise to power in 1933, the party ordered anti-Jewish boycotts, staged book burnings, and enacted anti-Jewish legislation. In 1935, the Nuremberg Laws defined Jews by blood and ordered the total separation of "Aryans" and "non-Aryans." On November 9, 1938, the Nazis destroyed synagogues and the shop windows of Jewish-owned stores throughout Germany and Austria (Kristallnacht).

The Holocaust Click on the map for audio and animated map description The Holocaust was the systematic persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime. The Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were "racially superior" and that the Jews, deemed "inferior," were "unworthy of life." During the era of the Holocaust, the Nazis also targeted other groups because of their perceived "racial inferiority": Roma (Gypsies), the handicapped, and some of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians, and others). In 1933, the Jewish population of Europe stood at over nine million. By 1945, close to two out of every three European Jews had been killed as part of the "Final Solution", the Nazi policy to murder the Jews of Europe.

In 1914, many Americans believed that the Monroe Doctrine encouraged them to follow a policy of "protectionism", since this doctrine stated that any further efforts by European nations to colonize the Americas would lead to an American retaliation.
Different people interpreted differently. To say that interpolations changed from the late 18th century to the present day would be an incorrect statement. The popularity of interpenetration from the late 18th century to the present day has changed.
The interpretation in question is if negroid people are people. Some of the very first abolitionist, owned slaves, like Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. The question "Why didn't they just free their slaves?" requires an essay in of it's self, but the short answer is that if it was financially possible, it would only mean transferring from one plantation to another, or otherwise risk putting them in inhumane conditions. Alexander Hamilton, was an abolitionist his whole life, he never inherited a plantation or any slaves, so he never had to deal with this issue.
Not every founding father or more importantly representative had this view. When Thomas Jefferson first wrote the Decoration of Independence, the grievance whereas it negativity talked about slavery was removed as a compromise so that the thirteen colonies could vote Yea. It should also be noted that racism and slavery are two separate issues. In many cases through out the 18th century, it is more common to find negroid people selling other negroid people to slavery than of caucasoid people doing the same.
In July of 1776, in Carpenters Hall, the main issue that was facing the Country was Independence. Slavery and the freedom of negroid people will have to be solved another date if the Nation where to ever live to see the day. The Nation could not afford to go to war among itself, crash it's own economy, and fight for independence in the same go. This fight would be solved in the Civil War.
Thus the Answer: The interpretations of the fact that all men are created equal did not change from the writing of the Decoration of Independence, but the popularity and realization of race being a negligent factor in humanity, and the evils of slavery, established its self in American Culture.
