100 Objects #7: The Otis Pamphlet
from 99% Invisible Hosted by Jack Hitt
Before the Declaration of Independence was even a twinkle in the founding fathers' eyes, there was James Otis. Journalist Jack Hitt returns to tell the wild, tragic story of America’s forgotten proto-founding father and his inflammatory 1764 pamphlet. A story that is, in many ways, the story of the founding document of the United States of America. A History of the United States in 100 Objects is a production of 99% Invisible and BBC Studios.
