No. People are not born equal, they have different traits, people are not equal after they are born as well, they are born in environments with different privileges and they become even less equal as they continue to live. Because of these inequalities they are treated differently and this will never change.
The idea is that people "are equal at birth in terms of humanity"---not invoking how much wealth or privilege their parents or family have. Even if they are born into wealthy circumstances and privilege, in the eyes of enlightened individuals, the newborn is not of any more worth than someone born into abject poverty and destitution. Subsequently, as individual moves through life, we must be careful not to confuse financial wealth and personality traits which are desirable in some regions of the world with the bare, core humanity that is left behind with everything else stripped away. In this case the spirit of this concept is very sound. We are all born equal at the very heart of our being. Everything else is baggage.. and indeed when we die, again we are all equal.
The idea of equality, unfortunately, still remains just an idea. Look what happened to the USSR - the country which wanted its people to have equal rights: Western capitalism saw it as threat to their own existence and dealt with it.
USSR did not have equal right many were murdered by the government including Trotsky and many others put in Gulags, millions starved to death Josef Stalin didn't.
Lots of goernments say they advocate for equal rights. Lots of goernments fail. That doesn't mean advocating, and working towards equal rights, is not a worthwhile persuit though, right? Your comment of "the idea of equality, unfortunately, still remains just an idea. Look what happened to the USSR" implies that the USSR's puplic show of advocacy for equal rights is what was wrong with the governmennt when... it wasn't. And working towards that ideal isn't a worthless goal. What is worthless was how the USSR didn't actually pursue that ideal at all, instead centralizing power to oppress people. A government can say whatever they want: if they are actively making their society less freeing, happy, and safe, then they are not doing a good job. But, further, them doing a bad job, then, has nothing to do with what they advocate for, but what they actually DO in the world.
I was just listening to this wokedemic "scholar" on the We Need to Talk About Whiteness podcast Anti-white gobbledygook. Totally incoherent and incomprehensible.
okay Anne Phillips, we just *can not* reference Adam and Eve as a symbol of "equality" when the catholic biblical story is FAAAAAAAR from it.... yikes. 😬
This was very interesting to watch I didn't quite realize how conditional human equality was before. thanks for presentation :)

Tatars in China have light skin so do many Iranians.
They don't want a large number of rapists and serial killers moving in that makes common sense.
Theodore Bundy escaped twice and killed more women once he was executed he did not do that again.

Anti-white gobbledygook. Totally incoherent and incomprehensible.
It's a carefully crafted narrative aimed at the destruction of people of European descent. They just add flowery language to make it more palatable.
gênant
Adam and Eve are depicted as white and this is wrong because derp derp derp
