What does the Fourth of July Holiday Mean To You As An American? And, why is it important for us, as a nation, to celebrate this holiday together?

The Fourth of July represents the birth of America as a nation independent from Great Britain. We owe a great debt to our forefathers for the groundwork they laid and their foresight in 1776.
I always remember the irony that two of our forefathers who were instrumental in advancing the Declaration of Independence, John Adams, our second president, and Thomas Jefferson, our third president, both died on the same day --- July 4, 1826, 50 years to the day after the Declaration was adopted. Americans must always recognize this important day in history. Its significance is profound.
Our community and national celebrations of Independence Day are important to reinforce the value and depth of our freedoms. It’s disappointing that we cannot celebrate with one another together, in-person this year, but the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be underestimated, and we must all do our part to stay safe. This year, as I watch the fireworks and virtual celebrations from home, I will more quietly reflect on the value of our freedoms and the sacrifices we must all make to protect those freedoms.


•As we celebrate our independence this month --- and the Bill of Rights, which provides a foundation for how we live today --- how would you describe your American freedoms? What do they mean to you?

I am fortunate to have been born in the United States with inherent rights to all the freedoms provided. When I view the persecution and deprivation of people in other parts of the world, I am grateful that I live in this country and can live my life relatively free. We must have rules and laws, but freedom is a way of life in our country and we must never take that freedom for granted.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”President Ronald Regan

•A focal point of our Fourth of July holiday celebrates the idea of our First Amendment right to free speech. 
Years ago, the 4th of July was called Independence Day. As such, I never thought of the day as celebrating the Bill of Rights, which came years after the country became independent. I do very much believe in A persons’ rights of free speech and assembly and will always support an individual’s right to speak one's mind even if I disagree with they say.


I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It


People also have a right to demonstrate and speak their opinions in public.


The Fourth of July spirit means much more than cookouts and fireworks.

I stood in awe in the National Archives where the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and Constitution are guarded. We were scholar winners for a speech contest about our government. I was just a teen from a small town, but I learned America is within me and bigger than all of us.

I have returned several times, still in awe.

Big Tech has greatly reduced the distribution of our stories in our readers' newsfeeds and is instead promoting mainstream media sources. When you share with your friends, however, you greatly help distribute our content. Please take a moment and consider sharing this article with your friends and family. Thank you



Please share… Like many other fact-oriented bloggers, we've been exiled from Facebook as well as other "mainstream" social sites. 

We will continue to search for alternative sites, some of which have already been compromised, in order to deliver our message and urge all of those who want facts, not spin and/or censorship, to do so as well.

Keep on seeking the truth, rally your friends and family and expose as much corruption as you can… every little bit helps add pressure on the powers that are no more.
