WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS (MP3 Audio) – One of the most famous radio programs of the WW2 era, by Norman Corwin – On the 150th anniversary of the
Constitution, this program relates the meaning of the Bill of Rights through history as well as through the eyes of average Americans… and how it affects us all. The Bill of Rights is the name by which the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution are known. They were introduced by James Madison to the First United States Congress in 1789 as a series of articles, and came into effect on December 15, 1791, when they had been ratified by three-fourths of the States. An agreement to create the Bill of Rights helped to secure ratification of the Constitution itself
A stirring, thought-provoking audio program, especially good for older students who care about United States history – excellent!
