Worst Countries for Women’s Rights
Read the opening paragraphs of the Declaration of Sentiments written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1848 at Seneca Falls NY. The read the opening paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson written in 1776 in Philadelphia PA. Compare and contrast the documents?
Why was Elizabeth Cady Stanton “smart” when she wrote the Declaration of Sentiments? How were the documents similar? What was the goal of each document?
Declaration of Sentiments
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one portion (group) of the family of man to assume among the people of the earth a position different from that which they have been occupied (given), but one to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle (guarantee) them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes (reasons) that impel (make) them to take such course (action).
We hold these truths to be self-evident (obvious): that all men and women are created equal; that they are endowed (given) by their Creator with certain inalienable (automatic) rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights governments are instituted (started), getting their just powers from the consent of the governed. Whenever any form of government becomes destructive, it is the right of those who suffer from it to refuse allegiance (accept), and to insist upon the institution (start) of a new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
The Declaration of Independence: A Transcription
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve (end) the political bands (ties) that have connected them with another group, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station (rights) to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle (guarantee) them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes (reasons) which impel (make) them to the separation (break apart).
We hold these truths to be self-evident (obvious), that all men are created equal, that they are endowed (given) by their Creator with certain unalienable (cannot be taken away) Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive, it is the Right of the People to alter (change) or to abolish (end) it, and to institute (start) a new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
In the decleration of independence it says that all men are created equal. In the decleration of sentiments it says all men AND women are created equal. In both the documents they are declaring rights.
both declerations the delecteration of independance and the decleration of sentaments both give rights to both men and women so both declerations are mostly the same
Both of them are similar because they both say they want rights. In the declaration of independance it says all men should be treated equal. In the decleration of sentiments it says all women and men should be treated equal
THey are simialar because they both want rights. The Declaration wants independance from Great Britian. Also the Seniments wants rights to.
In both the Declaration of Indapendence and the Declatation of Sentiments, it states either men or both men and women are created equal. In my opinion, I think that men and women should be treated and respected equaly, that is not because I am a girl but it is fair to treat everyone equally no mater race, religion, or gender you are, we are all created eaqual and should be treated with the same respect a man has.
in my opinion i think that susan b anthony was right to make civil right for blacks and women all people are created equal. in the decloration of independance it read that all MEN are equal in the decloration sentiments all men AND women are equal
I Think the both want rights. The declaration wants independants from great Britian. And the woman wants rights to.
The Decloration of Independance says that all men are created equal but the Decloration of Sentiments says that all men and woman are created equal.
Both of the documents are similar because they start the same but dont mean the same in the decla. of sents it say men and women are created equal in the declaration of independence it says that only men are created equal (:(:(:
In the decleration of sentiments it allows women the right to vote and be treated equally and in the Declaration of Independence it states that all men has to be created equal.
they are simlain because they creted equel right to all women like marrige and pay and wanted edueated all the woman
