Rafe reviews the USA's foundational document: Jefferson's Declaration of Independence, the fledgling nation's statement justifying the USA's dissolution of political bands with Great Britain.
Along the way, we will discuss structure and nature of this document, what is says and what it means, why these things were (and still are) important, and what it means today.
