The words seem simple: “all men are created equal,” and endowed with the rights of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Yet every era since has grappled with them. Elizabeth Cady Stanton used them as a starting point. Lincoln regarded them as the essential definition of America. Southern secessionists said they were false. Frederick Douglass called them hypocritical. Join Joyce Haworth as she recounts the influence of the Declaration over the last 250 years.
Presented in partnership with the Hinsdale Historical Society.
