Both the Declaration of Independence and the Declaration of Sentiments hold integrity and respect to be key elements of freedom and liberty. Although they both view integrity and respect as essential elements, they take different approaches to defining integrity and freedom. The Declaration of Independence holds that respect and integrity are trampled upon by taxation without fair representation and keeping “in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislators”. The Declaration of Sentiments holds that respect and integrity are trampled upon by keeping women from equal access to college and profitable jobs.
