What was the biggest contradiction between slavery and the Revolution's language of equality?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Despite the declaration of equality, people in the colonies were treated as property

The French Revolution proclaimed liberty and equality, yet enslaved people in French colonies continued to be legally treated as the property of owners. Thus, the principle of equality was not applied equally to all human beings. Option B is incorrect because enslaved people did not immediately receive political rights. Exam tip: remember the gap between revolutionary ideals and their application in the colonies.
