In the summer of 1776, The continental congress join in Philadelphia to created one

of the most important document that would start the birth of the United States. The
Declaration of the Independence would announced that the 13 american colonies will
declare themselves as 13 independent sovereign states and no longer part of a
monarch country. The Declaration of Independents would hold a important line, We
hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are Life,
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. This line show that all men are the same and they
have the right to live a life at is free and happiness. The quote that all men are created
equal dont talk about African Americans or women. The quote endowed by their creator
with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness dont say about Police officers taking the live of African Americans.
Since Christopher Columbus sailed to the Americans, men were not created equal.
The rich always thought that African Americans were from the lower class of the world
and that they didnt have any rights. In todays world, African Americans are not being
tried equal because companies are wanting white male for the job only because people
have created the idea that African Americans are not fit for the job because of the color
of the skin. Women were also not equal because women at this time, were seen as
caregivers and a piece of property. The role of a women was to take care of the house
and take care of the kids while the men were working and would put the food on the
table. Even today, Women are not tryed as equal because men get payed more that a
women for doing the same work as them. Hispanic are not being tried equal because of
that is going on today with Donald Trump, a republican presidential candidate that is
calling hispanic killer and rapist. The United States has a nation of Hope has not been
following the Constitution.
The quotes Endowed by their creator with unalienable rights that among these are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness In the eyes of the United States, these rights
dont apply for some people. African Americans were tried as slaves since Abraham
Lincoln signed the emancipation proclamation. Women didnt have the liberty to vote on
election day till seneca falls and the 19th amendment being past that would finally let
them. Muslims are not getting trieded right because they would be considered a
terrorist. What freedoms would they have? African Americans dont want to go out
because they fear that a police officer will shoot them and kill them. African American
have the right to live, so why are police officers kill them. In the Declaration of
Independence, the word God is being mention a lot. This shows how religions they
were but in the 20th century we have the death sentence. Is it gods decision where or
not that person lives? The police officers feel that they are superior than the law and
only because they have a gun, they can do anything they want.
In conclusion, This line from the Declaration of Independence that all men are
created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that

among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. This line is very important
because it shows what the United States really stand for.
