  • With gardens, skylights, and the famous dome room, Jefferson designed his home to be more than a place to live; it was his architectural legacy.

    1. Would've been nice to show the view from the edge of the top-as like an island in the sky because the sides drop away so abruptly you don't see but the treetops;
    2. His building architecture included tall ceilings to cool the incoming floor level air;
    3. Visitors are also told that Jefferson passed away penniless....

We must look at all of this in order to make progress toward our ideals in our country.

      Because we all already know that and have for decades (at least I did) it happened over two hundred years ago? Because Jefferson was a brilliant man who set up the best government with freedoms like the Bill of Rights. Because we don't want to view history through the crazy lens of an uneducated SJW? Hope that answers your question. Please stop viewing history through this modern day lens! Jefferson was against slavery. Yes, he had slaves. Yes, he fathered children with slaves. He also provided the very freedoms that all Americans have today which does NOT include slavery! Blacks in the USA have more freedom than any other black person in the whole of the world. We all do, white, black, asian. It will help you to stop getting triggered if you READ and study history and learn that history needs to be put into context. Again, two hundred years ago. America is the ONLY let me repeat the ONLY country in the world where a bus driver or a dishwasher can have a son or daughter and that child can become President of the United States. It is called "upward mobility" and other countries do not have it. WE DO. Even in England if you or born to middle class you will stay middle class and so on. America is not like that. Are we perfect? No, but that is why our system of government that Jefferson conceived and birthed allows for us to change what we don't like through voting.
