I am actually the one who spent hours researching and making this.

Glad to have it shared but I would like a bit of credit! https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1279401944621121537
After I spent hours researching & creating the Declaration slaveholders pic, I thought all the work was over.

But then @PolitiFact reached out for a fact check and LOL it was sooo stressful. Back to the books, documents & historic letters for more proof! https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2019/sep/10/arlen-parsa/evidence-shows-most-47-men-famous-declaration-inde/

Ever since I made this, I’ve gotten notes from teachers, museums, journalists & even descendants of the founders thanking me for my work.

Many folks ask if they can republish it and I have always given permission for $0. I only ask for credit! That’s it. https://twitter.com/arlenparsa/status/1168189409549803524?s=21
