We The Returned

WE THE RETURNED

What would America's Founding Fathers think of the country they helped create?

​

Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Paine return to modern America.

They discover a nation vastly different from the one they knew.

​

The Constitution they helped shape remains central to American life, but its meaning has become the subject of fierce political disagreement.

​

As the three men encounter modern politicians, journalists, historians, and ordinary citizens, they confront questions about freedom, government, democracy, and the responsibilities of citizenship.

And they don't always agree with one another.

​

Blending historical imagination, political satire, and provocative debate, We the Returned explores what might happen if the people who helped establish the American republic could see what became of their creation

.

They helped create a nation. Now they've returned to ask what happened to it.
