In which JF continues a video series about the ideological origins of the American Revolution and Bernard Bailyn's book of the same name. How do you learn what America's founders were thinking? Why does Bailyn choose to examine the humble pamphlet as his primary source? What do the Revolutionary-era pamphlets tell us about how they reasoned with their opponents, and what can we learn about that today? This video and series delves into those questions.
Happy birthday, America.
