Celebrate the 4th of July, a national holiday that symbolizes America’s independence from Great Britain. The Declaration of Independence, which made the United States a free country, was ratified on this day in 1776. It’s interesting to note that John Adams, a signatory to the declaration and the country’s second president, thought the holiday should be observed on July 2, when Congress ended the discussion and approved a resolution in support of independence put forth by Virginia’s Richard Henry Lee.

The famous declaration’s language states that “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” The phrase “all men are created equal” As revolutionary a message today as it was then.

This remark was the cause of not just a battle for independence but also what amounted to a mini-Civil battle within the nation. As noted by Abraham Lincoln in a letter to a friend written in 1855, “As a country, we began by asserting that “all men are created equal.” “All men are created equal, except negroes,” is practically how we today interpret it.

Such ideas were expressed by Lincoln in his public addresses as well. “I should like to know if taking this old Declaration of Independence, which declares that all men are equal upon principle and making exceptions to it where will it stop,” he said in his 1858 Chicago speech. In his renowned 1863 Gettysburg Address, Lincoln articulated this vision of America during the Civil War itself, stating that the country was “dedicated to” this idea.

Black Americans were granted citizenship after the Civil War, which was a watershed moment in American history that also saw the abolition of slavery. The succeeding Civil Rights movement put an end to the legal doctrine of separate but equal as well as government-sanctioned segregation. With its decision in Students For Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President And Fellows Of Harvard College, which prohibited racial affirmative action in academic contexts, the Supreme Court made considerable progress against racial discrimination today.

That well-known and admirable phrase from the Declaration of Independence was used by Justice Clarence Thomas in his concurrence with the conservative majority decision, explaining why affirmative action was unconstitutional. In doing so, he wrote that “I hold out enduring hope that this country will live up to its principles so clearly enunciated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States: that all men are created equal, are equal citizens, and must be treated equally before the law.”
