tell me why we all have the same video from our teachers but nobody writes anything to help out the other kids with answering some questions or whatever? 😂
because no one knows the answers xD

In the very beginning of time God created all & it was good, His plan was to have Him & His creation(humans) live in utopia. the satan deceived God’s creation so that wouldn’t happen, we choose evil. Evil has its consequences, death is the consequence for disobeying an everlasting God. God doesn’t want that for any of His creation so He sent His Son Jesus(God in the flesh) & Jesus lived the perfect life. Died the death as a criminal, & resurrected, all so that we could have eternal life if we have faith in that sacrifice.
Have an amazing life!😁
Because, not all of the questions are the same throughout different schools.
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO GOT THE SAME VIDEO LOL

On this Independence day everyone should read the Declaration of Independence paying close attention to the 28 counts of indictments of King George and then ask yourself if you see any parallels of these counts in today's world.
Couldn’t agree with you more. Reflection is needed now more then ever.
Well if you're alluding to what Biden and the DNC are doing to our republic. Then yes we all need to be well versed in rhe declaration.
@@Shinobi33 What he's doing to your republic is only the continuation of the mosterous counts of misjustice from previous administration. this is not biden DNC problem, this an an American government as a whole problem. if you only focus on biden, you're look at 0.01% of the problem
if you're taking civics here's some answers to some questions i've been asked:
1. "While watching the video, note what the following public figures have to say about the Declaration of Independence?"
*Aaron Storkin:* Sorkin highly praises the Declaration, claiming it is “one of the best pieces of writing” he’s ever seen. (0:09)
*Richard Slotkin:* Slotkin also praises the work, saying "...it is a revolutionary piece of writing for a revolutionary statement." (0:13)
*Tom Brokaw:* Brokaw seems to have gotten emotional at some point over the Declaration of Independence, having said that "you cannot help but be stirred when you read those words.” (0:15)
*Colin L. Powell:* Powell seems as moved by the piece, commenting that they are “beautiful words." Jefferson must of had some wonderful penmanship for this to be the case. (1:02)
2. "What were the two options that divided the Second Continental Congress?"
(1:59) "Are they fighting for their rights as Englishmen within the British Empire, or are they going to fight for independence?”
These are the men who formed and shaped the strongest nation in the world and they would be disappointed in what it has become in modern times
King TJ Only the brave and strong are aware of this issue and wish to change it for the better.
My ancestor who signed this document would agree. He would be shocked and apalled by the way Americans live today.
Quiet Demon they meant all white men are created equal
they would puke to death if they heard the leftists spewing their nonsense..
reaLA LA yep and even then not all white men are created equal. A few at the top and most at the bottom.
“When in the course of human events....”
Happy Fourth, fellow Americans
🇺🇸👍🎉🎆🎊🎇
It is amazing to think two hundred and 42 years ago a good friend of mine(we live in Michigan and we are 26 years apart in age) can join me in saying we both have an ancestor who signed the Declaration of Independence. I am proud that I can celebrate the 4th knowing I have an ancestor on my mother’s side who signed such an important document. July 4th is my favorite holiday.
Who is it?
Yikes. Shouldn’t be proud of genocide and the racism that this country was founded on. I love this country but absolutely hate it at the same time.
Rachel S be proud always 🥀
@@mjisabeast231 Same bro, like it's a lot more modern in a good way compared to other countries, but- it's just- most of the sexism/racism that people face today is based off of what happened when a bunch of old rich white men came together and fought for freedom when they were keeping others from it. America today (in my opinion) is just absolute garbage.
@@mjisabeast231 the racism part is only partly true because they were going to condemn slavery but didn’t want to lose the southern states that rely on it
Happy Birthday America. I love You. May God Bless America.
All America
Happy Fourth of July! God bless America!

Unfortunately, most of our U.S.A government politicians have forgot the most important American documents “the Declaration of Independence “
Agree whole hardly.
Not just they forgot, they haven't been taught the proper way of our true history/ the documents. From the last several years it's been about historical of slavery. But nothing about liberty and freedom and haven't been taught of never surrender it. So naturally people in our government today think it's a good thing to control their own people.
THE DOCUMENT WAS ALL WORDS...ITS WRITTEN BY A MAN WHO OWNED SLAVES...WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT...YOU ARE FAKE..
This is the fruition of the realization of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and their colleagues of the need to trust to man's seeking to be helpful to his fellow man and the need to form a government of the people, for the people and by the people
I love America
This was amazing but it scares me how much I of our freedom is being taken away.
I know I hear you it's depressing. But the most important thing is like let's be honest how many of us people today learned anything about what our declaration of independence not just stands for but where they came up them ideas that time, when Tomas jefferson, george Washington, James Madison, and all them other people that time of what they wrote. Sure I may not know everything about our history, but I do have a good idea 1 they had common sense about rights and freedoms they understood God is our creator and understood freedom is the gift from God. Plus what I been researching and understand of that they been there and seen how other countries kings/ queens that time controlled and dictated their own people. So naturally our founders didn't want that in America plus they also understood the bible. Which makes sense why they created the government to be "of the people, by the people, for the people" and created a document of "we the people controls the government" but how many people today knows anything about our true history plus the bible these days? Not many. Nowadays just been teaching about the historical of the past of slavery, instead of teaching them the historical of meaning of liberty and freedom instead, but not to surrender it. Nowadays it's the opposite of most of them. Sorry for a long reply just explaining my thoughts and opinions ☺.
cuz you’re a bootlicker lmaoo
Happy anniversary, everyone.

God bless America, We hold these truths's to be self evident, All Men are created equal.
Salute to those that the courage to stand against tyrannical oppression.
Our nation is still striving to live up to those words. People kill we when they want to go back to a time when we were a "more perfect union". There has NEVER been such a time. People mistake economic bubbles for living up to our creed. Our greatest promise as a nation is before us, not behind us. As a nation we are still evolving. We can only continue to evolve (and compete globally) together, allowing EVERY AMERICAN the opportunity to fulfill their promise.
Very eloquently stated!! 🇺🇲❤️🇺🇲

It is wrong of them not to fully realise their promise of equality with slaves, but it's also important to know that Jefferson, in spite of owning slaves himself, apparently wasn't fond of the system of slavery, and, in fact, in one draft of the Declaration of Independence, one of the indictments of against King George is that he forced slavery on the colonies. Needless to say, the southern states wouldn't have agreed to this, so it was voted out.
I'm saying that it was the right thing, but I also see it as a promise of something that one day might be realized. It's important to know the whole story.
This is fake news, revolution was fought to keep slavery going. Invalidates everything they said. England was getting rid of slavery at the time of revolution. George Washington fought to keep his slaves.
@@ag7dragonfly yup
@@ag7dragonfly he didnt say anything about the revolution. He talk about Jeffersons writing and about how Jefferson personally felt. The things you've said about how a person like Washington fought to keep slaves. Is exactly the reason, all mention of slavery were detracted from the first draft of the Declaration of independence. Because the were people who disagreed with that. He didnt deny that there wasn't.
ag7dragonfly The Southern DemocRats wanted and fought for slavery(which as and is still LEGAL in other countries). The Declaration of Independence which was set for King Gorge yet paved the the way to keep ALL AMERICANS FREE. The UNITED STATED OF AMERICA’s Constitutional rights was set for ALL Americans to be free UNDER A REPUBLIC(RULED BY LAW) and NOT by Democracy(Ruled by majority). Honestly America’s freedoms are hanging in a thread because of Political Agendas. KEEP AMERICA FREE by not infringing/destroying our fundamental rights that generally grants us more freedom than ANY other countries rulings. 🇺🇸 GOD BLESS AMERICA!🇺🇸
Moral compromises and fragile nature are mean thing in the founding generation.
“the state can’t take power from us, even to this day it’s probably the most central difference between america and !every! other country”
Some of the most brilliant men who ever walked the face of the Earth and almost 247 years later a threat of tyranny comes upon us again but as the victory we had 247 years ago we will have another victory 247 years later and for another 247 years from now thank God and forever live the founding fathers of this great nation🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I like that we all live together peacefully here in NV. Natives, whites, blacks and Hispanics. Real America
Good point, and I agree.
Makes me tear up everytime
Jefferson wrote All men are created equal while owning slaves. What a sad irony.
Preach
But Thomas paine was the one who wrote this phrase of men are equal " Thomas Stole Paine ideas
Brandon Wright he never agreed with the institution though but could not end it without having opposition
@@idontgiveafaboutyou he directly profited by through the work of slaves what are you talking about ?
John Locke, Charles Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau all helped Thomas Jefferson
These men were more intelligent than we are today. Who are we to think that we can better what they did? Our Constitution is better left alone. 🇺🇸
They were slaver owner who knew nothing of freedom

This is a good start on the impact of the Declaration of Independence on the United States of America. How many take away the meaning of the document as it pertains to the human rights of all people? How many translate those rights to the modern day to ask what role government is to play in our individual lives?
