 Call it what you want to, but the Declaration of Independence is probably the most hypocritical document in the world. On one point, they're declaring freedom and on another point, they're still enslaving people. Cause while they were declaring their freedom from Great Britain, they were still holding black people in bondage. And as quiet as is kept, some of these practices continue today with redlining and gerrymandering, last hired, first fired. Things that they do to those they consider slaves.
