How were slaves and women factored into the Declaration of Independence?

History

Nadya [2.5K]2 years ago

Answer:

However the Declaration of Independence established nothing regarding slaves or women. That would happen much later

Explanation:

When Jefferson wrote “all men are created equal” in the preamble to the Declaration, he was not talking about individual equality. What he really meant was that the American colonists, as a people, had the same rights of self-government as other peoples, and hence could declare independence, create new governments and assume their “separate and equal station” among other nations.

Women-The Declaration emphasized the need to extend voting rights to women and also covered their property rights, protection in marriage and divorce, and the broadening of employment and educational opportunities

Slavery- He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating & carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere or to incur miserable death in their transportation thither.

iogann1982 [59]

The correct answer is: An asteroid impact.

The scientists call it the extraterrestrial impact theory. It states that a giant, six mile wide meteor hit the Earth around 66 million years ago. As a consecuence, clouds of iridium dust and other materials were thrown into the air, blocking the sunlight for years. This lead to the extintion of the dinosaurs who were not able to feed themselves as plants didn't grow. Photosynthesis was not possible and food chains could not be completed. When the dust settled the greenhouse gases were locked in the atmosphere causing a general increase of temperature.
