Answer 2

Answer: Abolitionists and suffragettes both incorporated the language and ideas of the Declaration into their discourse.

Step-by-step explanation:

As many other did after him, in 1777, Prince Hall, a free African American in Boston, used the language of the Declaration and the idea of inalienable rights in his work to end slavery in Massachusetts.

In July of 1848, the first women’s rights convention was held at Seneca Falls, New York, organized by reformers Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. Their “Declaration of Sentiments” defending women´s right to vote was shaped following equality ideas found in the Declaration of Independence. They said: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
