What document changed the way Americans viewed slavery?
the Declaration of Independence.
What rights expressed in the Declaration of Independence most affected how people viewed slavery after the Revolutionary War?
For anti-slavery abolitionists, the Declaration of Independence was the source of their belief that because all men are created equal, by God, that slavery was an immoral institution. This document rather than the US Constitution was what their ideas relied upon.
How have the ideas in the Declaration of Independence changed over the years?
The ideas embodied in the 1776 Declaration of Independence have not been changed. What has been changed are societies and governments seeking to create better societies. One of the beliefs of American abolitionists was that the American Declaration clearly, in their minds, showed Americans that slavery ran counter to the words of the declaration.
What controversial issue was mentioned in the Declaration of Independence that was omitted from the final draft?
slavery. Jefferson thought that slaves should be set free and slavery was morally wrong. However, the delegates from the southern states would not sign the declaration unless the clause on slavery was removed. Eventually, Jefferson conceded and it was removed.
