and Bill of Rights
- Why was the Declaration of
Independence written?
- Why were the Bill of Rights added to
the Constitution?
- It was added to please and protect the people
from the national government to prevent
from gaining too much power. Adding the Bill
of Rights to the Constitution gained for more
people agreeing with the Constitution.
- What impact do you think that "all men are
created equal" will have on American society?

brings many people together. No matter who you are now in this
time-including race, sex, or religion, you will have the right to pursue

and it was a rough time getting jobs started that women could do
without the labor of a man helping.

which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
- He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of
his Protection and waging war against us.
- He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign
Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation
and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty
& perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages,
and totally unworthy of the Head of a civilized nation.
- He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and

- Grievances
- Grievances of the Declaration of Sentiments
- In the Declaration of Sentiments, it did not state its own rules whereas it
restated what the Declaration of Independence said- basically putting
emphasize on that all men and women are created equal.
- What demands were made in the Sentiments?
- The Declaration of Sentiments that equality of all men and women
have rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It shows
that women are held back by the government society of which
they are a part of. The declaration then lists facts: the lack of
women’s suffrage, participation, representation in the
government; women’s lack of property rights in marriage;
inequality in divorce law; and inequality in education and
employment opportunities. The document demands that women
be viewed as equal citizens of the United States such as the men.
- The most demand that was controversial was the inequality in
divorce laws because if the woman wants a divorce she should
be able to file for that. Same goes for the man. But the laws of
divorced marriages should be equal.
- Why do you think Stanton modeled the Declaration of Sentiments on
the Declaration of Independence?
- The author probably wrote it like that because the Declaration
of Independence had such a huge impact on people and it
made a difference in society so they figured the same about the
Declaration of Sentiments.

declare the same grievances and tehy both
define equality as anybody has teh same equal
rights.
