Activate Worcester, hosted by Ron Motta, shows viewers how to become active locally and politically in Worcester. In this episode, Ron visits again with political commentator Jay Givan as well as Fred Nathan to further discuss the July 14 celebration of Isaiah Thomas reading the Declaration of Independence for the first time in New England 250 years ago. Standing on the western porch of the Worcester Meeting House (where Worcester City Hall stands today), Thomas read the text to a gathered crowd after intercepting a post rider on the way to Boston.
