Let's take a deep dive into the history, impact, and contemporary resonance of the Declaration of Independence.

Join us for an hour-long conversation about the Declaration of Independence with Dr. Danielle Allen and Dr. Scott Stephenson.

Dr. Danielle Allen is a Professor of Political Philosophy, Public Policy, and Ethics at Harvard University, as well as a distinguished author and mom. She is also Founder and Chairperson of Partners In Democracy. At Partners In Democracy, she advocates for democracy renovation to create greater voice and access in our democracy, and drive progress towards a new social contract that serves and includes us all.

Dr. R. Scott Stephenson is the President and CEO of the Museum of the American Revolution. Before joining the museum as the first Director of Collections and Interpretation in 2007, he developed and collaborated on exhibits, films, and interpretive programs for numerous historical sites and organizations including Colonial Williamsburg, the Smithsonian, the Canadian War Museum, the National Park Service, George Washington's Mount Vernon, the Senator John Heinz History Center, and the Museum of the Cherokee Indian.
