We Hold these Truths

Listen with a ranger to Norman Corwin's one hour radio program celebrating the Bill of Rights' 150th anniversary. Aired shortly after Pearl Harbor, this broadcast helped define the meaning of America and included an appearance by President Roosevelt. With almost half of all U.S. citizens tuned in, it achieved the largest audience in history for a dramatic performance. You're encouraged to bring a comfy camp chair and delicious snacks.
