FAQ: Will this game cover the fact that Thomas Jefferson was a slaveowner?

Yes, the topic of Jefferson as a slaveowner is covered in the game.  Although the Founding Fathers achieved something remarkable with the establishment of the United States, they were real people, and therefore they had their flaws.  It must be discussed that while these men were fighting for their own freedom, they were denying freedom to others
