Founding Fathers

The Founding Fathers of the United States did not envision a pure democracy when they wrote the Constitution 

They were concerned about the risks of populism and mob rule, and they designed a system with checks and balances to distribute power among different branches of government  

Only the House of Representatives was directly elected by the people, while the President was chosen by the Electoral College, and originally, Senators were selected by state legislatures  

In essence, the Founding Fathers aimed to balance the will of the people with stability and wisdom, protecting against the tyranny of the majority. However, the Founding Founders did not have Free Colored men, women and children in mind when creating the Constitution. It would appear that tRump and his MAGA ricipients would like nothing more than to Eradicate anyone that is not of the Caucasion Persuasion.

UnalienableRights

Unalienable rights are rights that are considered inherent and cannot be taken away or transferred. They are fundamental to human existence and are seen as intrinsic to every individual. In the context of American history, these rights are famously outlined in the Declaration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson in 1776.

The Declaration states that all men are “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” This means that every person has the right to live, to be free, and to seek their own happiness without interference from others or the government.

These rights are considered to be natural and self-evident, meaning that they are inherent to human beings by virtue of their existence and do not require any external justification.

When the Declaration of Independence was written, it stated that “all men are created equal” and endowed with unalienable rights

However, in practice, many people, including Black individuals, were not granted these rights. Slavery was still legal and widespread at the time, and it took many years and significant struggle to begin to realize these ideals for everyone.

It’s important to recognize the gap between the ideals expressed in the founding documents and the reality of their implementation. The fight for civil rights and equality has been a long and ongoing journey in American history.

The right to vote for Black Americans has been a long and challenging journey. Initial

John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act

There have been efforts to pass such legislation at the federal level. For instance, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act aims to restore and strengthen parts of the Voting Rights Act that have been weakened over time. This bill would require states with a history of voting discrimination to get federal approval before making changes to their voting laws.

However, passing such laws can be challenging due to political opposition and differing views on how to best protect voting rights. It’s a crucial and ongoing debate in the quest to ensure fair and equal access to voting for all Americans.
