Produced in partnership with the National Constitution Center, America’s leading platform for nonpartisan constitutional education and debate, this ClickView series is focused on the work of leading historian Carol Berkin. Across 91 videos, archive, and animation bring to life the stories of signers of both the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution – from Washington and Franklin to lesser-known figures like Gouverneur Morris and Charles Pinckney, whose contributions are often overlooked.
