The Declaration of Sentiments was written at the Seneca Falls Convention about women's rights. It had nothing to do with slavery (A and B are wrong). It didn't talk about African Americans at all, in fact (D is wrong). What it DID do is list how women's rights were violated! C is correct.

Answer: It listed the limited rights of women at the Seneca Falls Convention.
