On this explosive Independence Day episode of The United States of Grit, Walker and Bracken dive deep into the most courageous document ever written: the Declaration of Independence.
But this isn't a history class — it's a war story.
You’ll hear:
- The oppressive road that led to rebellion — from the Stamp Act to the Boston Massacre, Tea Party, and the Intolerable Acts
- The fiery pen of Thomas Jefferson, and why a 33-year-old Virginian was chosen to write the soul of America
- The brutal cost of signing that declaration — families destroyed, homes burned, lives lost
- And the bold line that still echoes today:
“We mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.”
This isn’t about fireworks.
It’s about fire — the kind that forges nations.
Hit play. Get fired up. And remember why July 4th still matters.
