Thomas Jefferson objected to leaving out a criticism of the British slave trade from the Declaration of Independence. In his original draft, he included a passage condemning the British monarchy for perpetuating the slave trade, which he viewed as a moral injustice.

Jefferson's frustration reflected his complex views on slavery and its implications for American freedom.
