Answer 1

Answer: It illustrates how the Declaration of Independence was used to justify later movements for equal rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Declaration's line "all men are created equal" has sparked throughout history reasons for people to fight for their rights in America. Even if this line initially was only for men who were rich and anglo-saxon. It moved oppressed groups to fight for their freedom as well, that being groups like women, African Americans, LGBTQ+, etc. all throughout American history.
