It is read directly from the transcript, without the filter of historians trying to control the narrative in one direction or the other.

Glad to read that! A while ago (MLK birthday perhaps) someone posted the audio version of 'Letter from a Birmingham Jail' with the warning 'Not what you think.' I never did ask what alterations was made to make it different than what 'I would think.'

Jefferson’s “original Rough draught” of the Declaration of Independence full audio

Thankfully the other members of the committee outvoted him or there never would have been a United States.

Jefferson's original version would have collapsed support for the movement, and we would have remained part of England.
