Bastille Day Livestream with Jefferson & Lafayette

Thomas Jefferson considered the French Revolution a sequel to the United States’ struggle for liberty, and thanks to the five years he spent in Paris in the 1780s, he had a front-row seat on the coming of this watershed moment in French history. Indeed, Jefferson was in Paris for the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789.
Join us this Tuesday, July 14, at 1:00 p.m. EDT for a special Bastille Day conversation between Thomas Jefferson, interpreted by our own Bill Barker, and the Marquis de Lafayette, interpreted by Colonial Williamsburg’s Mark Schneider. These veteran historic interpreters will discuss their lifelong friendship, experiences during the American and French Revolutions, and differing views and actions concerning slavery.
