À propos de cet audio
In listening to James Otis, Jr.'s arguments against the Writs of Assistance in 1761, John Adams remarked that it was there that American Independence was born. There is no question of Otis' erudition or passion for liberty, but while he fought for the rights of his country, he was also fighting a personal battle for his mental health. We talk with Gerald Holland, aurhor of a new biography of Otis, Lucy Pollock, Kate LaPine, and Paul Piwko as they discuss the new online exhibit. Patriot, Hero, and Distracted Person. a collaboration between Revolutionary Spaces and the National Museum of Mental Health Project on the life and struggles of James Otis, Jr.
