Getting the opportunity to ascertain conclusive details concerning oppression and slavery remain a debatable concern in the modern world. In as much as the current society and the Americans at large claim that liberty and democracy have been achieved, there are still conflicting arguments that arise amongst the historians of today, and those of the colonial period. In this connection, the fact that historians always seem to have divergent viewpoints regarding the state of slavery and freedom it is apparent that the modern world does to have a chance to demystify the reasoning behind oppression and slavery. Ideally, people still view and perceive slavery as an exception and confuse it with hypocrisy.

On the contrary, the fact that different perspectives of historians concerning the issue of oppression, slavery, and racism still seems to conflict means that a significant percentage of the worlds population including the Americans still believes that the state of democracy and liberty has not been successfully achieved. In this regard, the sense of argument of the current historians and the colonial historians still show some sense of similarity. The ideology is considered affirmative on the basis that issues concerning hypocrisy, racism and oppressed are still being embraced, and are still stuck and active in the public domain. On the same note, it is quite categorical to note that the philosophy concerning the rise of liberty and democracy is perceived in a similar philosophical standpoint as the dominance of the viewpoints about hypocrisy, oppression, and racism.

By and large, the thoughts of the modern American historians and the elites of the colonial era still connect with a similar line of argument on the basis that a significant percentage of the current American population still feel oppressed and deprived of substantial opportunities. The primary distinction is the mindset and the difficulty in differentiating the real meaning of hypocrisy and slavery.
