Thirteen colonies unite in rebellion, win their independence, and found the United States.
The American Revolution is one of the most important events in human history. We went from being subjects to citizens, and set in motion democratic revolutions around the globe. It’s a great story – and hugely relevant to today. I hope you can watch. #AmericanRevolutionPBS

So excited to launch the new Pursuit podcast today with @KenBurns @prx & @ConstitutionCtr. Thanks to @UNUMKenBurns for posting the video from our amazing conversation about the daily quest for lifelong learning!
Today, and for the next eleven weeks, we’ll be posting clips of our own @KenBurns and @RosenJeffrey on Pursuit (a new podcast from @prx and @ConstitutionCtr), discussing how the founders understood happiness as intimately connected to the idea of virtue.
