The Declaration of Independence acknowledges a most volatile right: the people’s right to rebel. If the people are not happy with their government, then it is within their unalienable rights to “alter and abolish it.”
In 1776, that right was exercised through armed rebellion. But is that the only way to exercise that right?
Join Historian Meg Mott for an open discussion supported by NH Humanities as she considers the language of the Declaration of Independence and how it’s guided social movements across the political spectrum, to institute a government that was written by the people and fore the people.
