Library Launches New “Our Constitution” Podcast Series
In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the Library of Congress is launching a new 21-episode podcast series exploring the lasting influence of this foundational document on the Constitution and American government. “From Grievance to Governance: How the Declaration of Independence Informs the Constitution,” examines the grievances against King George III that Thomas Jefferson outlined in the Declaration and explores how those experiences — and the broader historical events surrounding them — influenced the framers as they drafted the Constitution in 1787. Hosted by Library attorney Jeanne Dennis, the series explains the Declaration’s grievances in an accessible and engaging format, offering students, scholars, researchers, public officials, historians, writers and the public a trusted resource for understanding the origins of the nation’s governing principles.
