Morgan Freeman and the Declaration of Independence

I came across this short documentary yesterday on Facebook. It has been around for years, and is usually circulated during the Independence Day celebrations. It seems that 6 months of studying the American Revolution with Nathan in school has elevated my interest this year. As a result, I'm still mentally focused on the Independence Days celebrated in Canada and the United States last week.

There's depth and beauty in Morgan Freeman's eloquent comments, especially as he talks about the ideals of the document, and the challenge that the nation faces when striving to meet those ideals. Well said!

Hope you enjoy! Hope you're prompted to ponder!

A last post on the topic, at least for this year! Time to move on!
