This episode details the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. The initial draft, penned primarily by Thomas Jefferson, underwent significant editing by the committee, including the removal of a passage condemning slavery due to opposition from Southern delegates. Despite this omission, the Declaration's assertion of equality remained, foreshadowing future struggles over slavery. Following heated debate, the resolution for independence passed on July 2nd, with final adoption and signing occurring on July 4th, 1776.

Special Thanks to "A History of the American People" by Paul Johnson for content for this episode. Please check out his book if you want to learn US history. It is the best book I have found on the topic.
