Why do you think the constitution allowed slavery to continue, even though the declaration of independence claimed that "all men are created equal"? what do you think should've been done?

Well, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson desperately needed some rules in the US so they needed the majority approval to get it official. One of the biggest issues was about slavery. Many people were lazy and didn't want to do work on their own. Since the founders were so desperate they decided that they would just let slavery go on at least until it was done. They desperation got the best of them and they wrote that. To be honest, all this racism could've been stopped. Actually, it wouldn't have even happened. After the Constitution was approved, George Washington let his slaves go BUT, Thomas Jefferson let his slaves go after he died. How did he do that? In his will.
