Whom said some colonists believe were not included in thomas jeffersons statement that all men are created equal?

Some colonists believed that Thomas Jefferson's statement "all men are created equal" did not include enslaved individuals, women, or Native Americans. While the phrase was a cornerstone of the Declaration of Independence, many viewed it as applying primarily to white, land-owning men. This exclusion reflected the prevailing societal norms and prejudices of the time, highlighting the limitations of the Enlightenment ideals espoused in the document.

When Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal to whom was he most likely referring?

When Thomas Jefferson said that all men are created equal, he probably meant, all white, land-owning men are created equal. He clearly did not support the equality of people of African descent (even though, ironically, this quote from the Declaration of Independence was later used very effectively to support the concept of racial equality).


When the declaration of independence was written in 1776 who was considered to be created equal?

It states:- "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Therefore the answer is "all men" However, they did not mean women or black staves/people both of whom have had to struggle to be included in this ever since.
