Traveler Notes

Monticello is the home of Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd president and one of the founding fathers of the United States.

He was generally perceived as a good president. The ironic part is that he was the principal author of Declaration of Independence which states “all men are created equal”, yet he personally owned ~600 slaves and secretly fathered 6 children with one of them, Sally Hemings.

Highly recommend this tour. The tour guide was compassionate and thoughtful when discussing the controversial topic of slavery at Monticello.
