[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4543116, member: 18222"] Were the Founding Fathers were speaking only of free white men in their discourse on rights and independence? Martin Luther King didn't think so! [B]“When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the … Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note… that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights.”[/B] I guess he was considering women in there as well. This year, on[B] August 26th [/B]we celebrate the 100th Anniversary of Women's Independence Day. On [B]June 19th[/B], we celebrated the 155th anniversary of the emancipation of those who had been enslaved in the United States, notably Africans and African Americans. What a great three months of celebration. Have I forgotten any group? Feel free to recognize them in your posts! [/QUOTE]
