From Philadelphia in 1776 to Paris in the 1780s, Thomas Jefferson spent time in the august company of his “great and dear friend” Benjamin Franklin. Born more than a generation apart and differing on some issues like slavery, they were nevertheless great companions and intellectual colleagues. In this week’s livestreams we’ll explore the relationship between Jefferson and Franklin and its impact on the early Republic. First, please join us for a live Q&A with Thomas Jefferson, interpreted by Bill Barker, and Benjamin Franklin, interpreted by Bill Robling HERE.
