"Truth is great and will prevail." The man who said these words is arguably the most defamed of our founding fathers. Perhaps the worst accusation laid against Thomas Jefferson is that he fathered children with one of his slaves. This episode lays out a case in defense of his morality and shows a man whose commitment to truth and freedom truly knew no bounds.

There is perhaps no founding father whose memory has been more maligned than Thomas Jefferson’s. This episode is part one of three episodes in defense of both his character as well as the ideals he so cherished. The more you learn about this remarkable man, the more you will come to see that he truly believed that “All men are created equal” and that truth is indeed, “self evident”.
