Question

Can you help me understand this History question?

One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reviewing the assigned materials, compose your discussion board posts on the Declaration of Independence.

Consider these questions:

What are the key arguments that the Declaration of Independence makes for the colonies’ separation from Great Britain?

Where do the Founders get their ideas concerning the concepts of natural rights, personal liberty, and the role and dissolution of government?

How does the Declaration of Independence define what the role of government should and should not be?

Is the Declaration of Independence a conservative or revolutionary document? How/why?

What did these men risk by putting their names to this document?
