Four score and seven years ago our fathers brough fourth on this continet , a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
I choose this passage cause it was always a saying that we were taught in school. It was always a part of our school plays. This passage has a meaning to me of letting us know that a new America was now being formed. That slavery was was coming to an end an african american or blacks would now be considered apart of the new America. They had the same rights as whites.
I was also interested in the beginning of the passage. This passage highlights the promise that this country and it's constituents were built upon. It gave the people a since of hope that all people were to be considered equal.
