In Episode 4 of Modern Age with Dan McCarthy, we take a closer look at the misunderstood philosophy behind the Declaration of Independence. Dan explains how generations of Americans have been taught a flattened version of the Declaration’s ideas—especially the notion that government exists only to serve unlimited individual rights. This episode explores the deeper political philosophy of the Declaration—and how modern misreadings have led many to believe that human rights create government. A must-watch for anyone who wants to think seriously about liberty, authority, and the American tradition.
