Question

Did the United States stick to the words written in the first line of the Declaration of Independence, "We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal" during the early years of the country's foundation?

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though the first line of the Declaration of Independence, stated that "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal" the United States did not stick to the words written therein during the early years of the country's foundation

This is because the Declaration of Independence was made after the American Revolutionary War, which was in 1776. However, slavery did not end in the United States until December 1865, which was about 90 years later, when congress eventually passed and ratified the 13th Amendment.
