Thomas Jefferson, and most of the founding fathers, realized slavery was incompatible with our declarations founding ideology, “all men are created equal...”. They expressed many times in their writings that they wanted to see slavery end and some even joined abolitionist organizations.

While keeping over 200 slaves and not freeing them.

Actions speak louder than words.

You realize you sound just like the liberals who produced this 1619 project, right?

But you are right, actions speak louder than words. And Ben Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay all joined the Pennsylvania Society for
Promoting the Abolition of Slavery. Ben Franklin even served as President.

But you go ahead and keep siding with these liberals who claim that the founding fathers were just a bunch of racist lying slave owners who really didn’t believe the immortal words they wrote”all men are created equal”.
