D). Banneker points out that although both blacks and whites were created by the same Being who gives freedom and equality to all people, whites deny blacks those rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin Banneker's letter to Thomas Jefferson challenged the principles proposed in the Declaration of Independence and Bill of rights and the continued existence of slavery. He demanded freedom for all and which he illustrated through the imagery of God. He says God created all men equally and emphasizes the point that if the almighty had not bifurcated people and bestowed everyone with the same quality and focused that despite being diverse in color, race, religion, language, we all share common creator. Thus, he urges equality for all which reflects his key idea in the letter.
