À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Revolution 250 Podcast, host Professor Robert Allison speaks with Emily Sneff, author of When the Declaration of Independence Was News. Together they explore how the Declaration spread across the colonies and the wider world—not as a sacred founding text, but as breaking news. Sneff, co-founder of the Declaration Resources Project at Harvard University, traces how printers, sailors, and town criers turned Congress’s resolution into headlines that shaped the very idea of independence.
From the first public readings to the global echoes in newspapers and pamphlets, this conversation reveals how revolutionary ideas went viral in the 18th century—and how that moment still defines what it means to announce freedom today.
