What contradiction appears when slavery and the Declaration of Rights are studied together?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rights were declared but slavery continued in colonies

The governing concept is the gap between universal political principles and their limited application. The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen proclaimed liberty and equality, yet enslaved people in French colonies were not immediately included in those promises. Plantation economies and colonial commercial interests helped preserve slavery despite revolutionary language. Option A identifies this contradiction accurately. Option B is false because rights were not granted immediately, while C wrongly restricts the declaration to planters and D denies the well-established existence of slavery in the colonies.
