Question

how could Congress agree to sign a document stating that all men are created equal and not immediately outlaw the enslavement of africans

Answer 1

Answer:slaves were labled as implements or property and didn't have rights

Step-by-step explanation:

slave owners declared slaves as tools rather than humans

Answer 2

Congress viewed black people as not being human, and since the phrase "All men are created equal" only applied to what they meant when they wrote "men", slaves were not freed.
