FREE EXHIBIT AT NYU THROUGH JULY 10 Long Trail to Liberty, presented by The Berkley Collection and held at New York University. The exhibition explores the most critical section of the Declaration—the list of 27 justifications for revolution, known as “the grievances.” By examining the history of each grievance in the context of numerous original documents, letters, maps, and more, the exhibition reveals how Thomas Jefferson and the Second Continental Congress turned recent and historical crises facing the colonists into a powerful argument for independence. submitted by /u/Hammer_Price [link] [comments]
