Founding

Race:
      The idea behind the founding fathers was to make the whole man kind equal and happy for everyone to be in peace with one another. The United States Army had even soldiers from different races battling on their side to have and advantage over the British Army. It didn't matter to them that different races fought side by side. The idea that was stated in the Declaration Of Independence was the all man should be treated equal. That's why we don't have no slaves and more freedom since then.

This link talks about how the declaration outlawed slavery and gave Americans more freedoms but with rules that made the U.S. a more peaceful place to live.

  1. The declaration certainly inspired emancipation, sooner in the North than in the South. But even then, Lincoln conspicuously drew on the document. Just don't compress the process, it took a long time for all Americans to read the Declaration in this way.
