The Declaration of Independence is not that long and is easy to read. It basically first states who "We" were, drawing together all colonists as a "united" people. Second, it lists the peoples grievances: you tax us too much; we have no voice in governing ourselves; we're tired of how you treat us as subjects to the British Crown. Then it declares the colonists' (and our) Independence. Take 10 minutes and read it.
