Declaration of Independence

Step back in time to hear this dramatic presentation of the Declaration of Independence. Experience the anticipation as you gather at a public reading and hear these powerful, revolutionary words as if for the first time. Listen as the introductory paragraphs are delivered by the Founding Fathers; then, feel the excitement as the 27 grievances are shouted out by disgruntled patriots from the crowd gathered to witness our nation's birth. Add your voice to the chorus of "Fie!" over our trampled rights and the shouts of exultation that "these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be, Free and Independent States." It’s more than a recitation—it’s a living breath of history that invites you to stand among the patriots, feel the weight of their courage, and rediscover the spirit of 1776.
