Exactly 50 years ago tonight, my adolescent self was wandering around alone in downtown Indianapolis wearing my uncle's 100 year old tricorn hat, and listening to the funk bands playing live around the Circle. #BiCentennial
So much more memorable than whatever the shit is happening today. -
I remember the #bicentennial and it was so exciting the best thing ever, my village had a parade and ice cream as well as fireworks like every fourth, but bigger ones. We were sad when it was over, but then we figured out we'd probably all live to see the 250th. Can't say it's been the same, but I'm not 11 so hard to tell.

Two Hundred Fifty Years of What, and What For?
A drummer boy surfaced in my pocket change this week, on a quarter so worn his tricorn hat has gone soft at the edges. The Mint struck him by the hundreds of millions for the Bicentennial, Jack Ahr's little colonial drummer with the dual date 1776-1976 stamped beneath his heels, and fifty years later he still turns up in laundromats and bodegas like a veteran who never quite made it home. I was eleven when that coin was new. Holding it on a Tuesday in Jersey City, the day the country turns two hundred fifty, I felt the whole distance between that summer and this one settle into my palm, small and cold.

In 2026 just touching the water gets you arrested.

I think the #Bicentennial came at an opportune time for this revisionist history movement. We could connect the current state of the US into a two-century continuum of increased justice and freedom for everyone. The United States of 1976 was where we were always coming to, and if it had taken a little too long to get there, well, that's sad, but also, aren't we all a little nobler for having made the heroic struggle?
