IMPROVED ANSWER
The question is historically incorrect. The Declaration of Independence had nothing to do with freeing black people. That was the 13th amendment (and Emancipation Proclamation) of the Constitution. The Declaration of Independence was a list of grievances written to the King of England stating the reasons why the 13 colonies wanted to separate from England. This document was written way before people were even thinking about releasing the slaves.
The Declaration was published in July 1776, but Congress didn't sign it until Aug, 1776. The result of the Declaration was the revolution. King George, at first, thought of the problems in the colonies as minor, but after Bunker Hill he realized it was much greater and worse than he thought.
I would say the truths were:
All Men Are Created Equal
Endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights
Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
Powers from the consent of the governed
Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.
mainly self explain in that section. It seems that in today's world none of those truths have been upheld, we aren't created equal, we aren't allowed to live our lives the way we choose and my pursuit of Happiness, keeps getting blocked by people who are afraid of change.
American writers largely imitating European Romantics.
Please be more specific about which mammalian order/family/genus/species/subspecies you're interested in as there is a wide variety of complexities amongst the various types.
No, I do not agree that the Declaration of Independence should be revised however the document has ingrained flaws from the time and era it was written in that need to be recognized and acknowledged.

Pursuant to data collected from the National Constitution Center.
Since Britain did not approved it as a treaty, it could only be "signed' not ratified.
Those documents are literally priceless. They would never be put on sale, and so they have no price.
No. The Declaration of Independence was written after the American Revolution and announced the separation of the colonies from England and the formation of the United States of America.
civil liberties typically focus on freedom and due process outlined in the Bill of Rights where civil rights concern the equal status and treatment of individuals.
It said in the Declaration of Independence that all men would be created equal, but that wasnt the case, women and slaves were not created equal as the men.
There were 27 grievances from the colonies against the British King, King George. Some of the grievances were about the welfare of the people. There is no full and complete list in circulation to confirm in war was one of the grievances but many people believe that it was.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpation's, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security.
The Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, and the Treaty of Paris was signed in 1783
A white man was considered a whole man whereas a black man was considered only 3/5 of a person.
Having an African American president. All men are created equal, so all men have the same opportunities in life.
1776 was the year we declared independence
In the 1700's it wasn't Independence Hall, but the state house. It would have been paid for by the colony and the crown.
It means that everyone is created with rights, by our very nature. Inalienable means that the rights are part of us, not something that we can be separated from. Creator refers to God, but even if you don't believe, it still means that we are all born with rights that aren't given to people differently, but we all have them equally.
