«I’ll Take My Stand», two different Jefferson memorials, the Library of Congress Symposium, and the «New Masses» special issue testify to the diversity of Jefferson representations and his appropriators. Jefferson panegyrics in Congress and Roosevelt’s borrowing from these speeches in 1945 suggest the various issues Jefferson was appropriated for.
