After meeting as young politicians in 1776, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison became lifelong friends who shared many interests and philosophies on politics and governance—including opinions on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. In honor of Constitution Day, this week’s livestreams explore the relationship between Jefferson and Madison, the shared ideas that created the Constitution, and the rights it meant to protect. Please join us for a live Q&A with Thomas Jefferson, interpreted by Monticello’s Bill Barker, and James Madison, interpreted by Colonial Williamsburg’s Bryan Austin.
