We created this “original version” of the Declaration as a word-for-word audio book, it was released just two months prior to the publication of The 1619 Project.(Not knowing it was coming)[Though the recording itself was completed probably in the spring]

This full audio is free and open source in the public domain. Being as its part of a collection it is easy to miss its existence and its a good recording.
Also, check out my reading and analysis of the Dec, Bill of Rights, Articles of Confederation, and some articles of the Constitution
