Reading reenactment
As part of a nationwide commemoration, a public reading of the
Declaration of Independence took place July 8 on the steps of the
Birmingham Municipal Building. The event, which was coordinated by the
Piety Hill Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and
the Birmingham Museum, marked the 250th anniversary of the first
reading of the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
