Season 3 of Rebecca Nagle’s First America podcast frames what we face today brilliantly by adding #indigenous people back into #AmericanHistory.
Not an accident, their erasure impairs our understanding our country and how the current moment fits into that.
Authoritarian tendencies start before the #DeclarationofIndependence and grow like cancer throughout the state.
Understanding what our government did remains essential for us to build the society we need. We must own this and learn from it or we repeat it.

📜 THE WORDS THAT BIRTHED A NATION

July 26

On this day in 1776, printer John Nixon climbed onto the balcony of Independence Hall in Philadelphia and read the Declaration of Independence aloud to the gathered crowd below. For the first time, ordinary citizens heard those revolutionary words — "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal" — echoing across cobblestone Market Street. The reading took hours, as Nixon repeated the document to ensure everyone in the growing crowd could hear. That summer afternoon, the abstract ideas of a small group of delegates became the voice of an entire people.

1776 Against 1787: Constituent Power and the Forgotten Meaning of American Democracy

✒️ "THEY'LL HAVE TO SHOOT ME FROM THE BACK OF A HAYWAGON!"

July 5

On this day in 1776, John Hancock became the first to sign the Declaration of Independence — and he made sure everyone would notice. His enormous, flamboyant signature dominated the page, a deliberate middle finger to King George III. Hancock reportedly quipped that the British would be able to read it without spectacles. That bold stroke of ink set the tone for 55 more signatures that would follow, each one a death warrant signed in the name of liberty.

Trump Honors American Heroes And Founding Fathers During 250th Independence Day Celebration

The United States of America (USA) celebrated its 250th anniversary and during his 4th of July speech at the National Mall, US President Donald Trump honored the American heroes as well as the Founding Fathers of the nation, according to a news report by Newsmax.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the report of Newsmax. Some parts in boldface…

President Donald Trump celebrated America’s 250th anniversary in a rousing speech on the Fourth of July at the National Mall on Saturday night.

Trump delivered his remarks after 11 p.m. ET, after being delayed by over an hour due to lightning and heavy rains. But Trump said he would not be deterred in celebrating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.

“If we have to speak in front of one person at four in the morning I’m going to be here,” Trump said in a speech streamed live on Newsmax. “There’s no way we can be deterred.”

“Tonight we come together for one of the most joyous and glorious milestones of all time,” Trump added. “For two and a half centuries, our American Republic has stood as the crowning achievement of human history.

“This country is the home of freedom. This is the land of liberty. And this is a flag that’s the banner of the most extraordinary, most exceptional, most incredible nation ever to exist on the face of the Earth.”

The president said the American people have shown more courage, done more good, righted more injustice and achieved more greatness than anyone else.

“For 250 years, the United States of America has been the hope, the promise, the light and the glory among all of the nations of the world, all over the world, they try and be like us,” Trump said.

“Nobody can be like us, and with God’s help, we will always be this,” Trump added. “Or even better. We’re going to be better.”

Trump used his speech to honor numerous veterans who fought in American wars, bringing them on stage to salute the flag while telling their tales of heroism.

Among those honored were 104-year-old Ken Schrubing, who was just 19 years old when he survived the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and 101-year-old Don Graves, who fought in the Battle of Iwo Jima.

“These are the fighters and the banners of the Greatest Generation,” Trump said. “They are the greatest generation. They saved the world and they made America very, very proud. We’re very proud of you, heroes all.“

Marine Corporal Pat Finn and Private First Class Rudy Meekins, who fought in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir in the Korean War, were also honored, along with astronaut Jack Schmitt, the last American to walk on the moon, and the Artemis II flight crew.

Eleven Gold Star families were also presented with flags during Trump’s speech.

Speaking in front of the first American flags produced, Trump praised the Founding Fathers and the signers of the Declaration of Independence.

“Those 56 patriots put everything at risk, stepped onto the stage of destiny, and seized a victory for the ages,” Trump said.

Trump said the Founding Fathers have allowed America to thrive for 250 years.

“Our cause was just. Our people are brave, our culture is exceptional, and our destiny is written by God,” Trump said.

“And as we can see here tonight, after 250 years, the spirit of 1776 still lives within us all,” Trump added.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you delighted with the way America’s 250th anniversary was celebrated this year? Are you thankful to America’s Founding Fathers, war veterans and other brave heroes who kept the US a shining light on the world? Do you think the unpatriotic Americans will eventually realize they are wrong with their current beliefs and make a drastic change to love the United States again?

The Living Signatories to The Declaration of Independence and the American Jubilee

America celebrated its 50th anniversary on July 4, 1826. Just three signatories to The Declaration of Independence, Adams, Jefferson, and Charles Carroll of Carrollton, lived to see the day. I look at their stories as related to July 4, 1826

"And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."

As we celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Independence today, may we remember its ending - one that reminds us of the unity we owe each other if we are to carry on its legacy.

Happy #4thofjuly #IndependenceDay #DeclarationofIndependence

Today, America celebrates its 250th birthday. 200 years ago, America celebrated its Jubilee. On the occasion of America's 50th, three signatories to The Declaration of Independence still lived. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson famously both died on July 4, leaving Charles Carroll as the last living signatory. Carroll would live on until 1832. In my new article, I collected some quotes and stories about Adams, Jefferson, and Carroll related to the American Jubilee.

A quotation from Barack Obama

Tonight, we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation — not because of the height of our skyscrapers, or the power of our military, or the size of our economy. Our pride is based on a very simple premise, summed up in a declaration made over two hundred years ago: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” That is the true genius of America — a faith in simple dreams, an insistence on small miracles.

Barack Obama (b. 1961) American politician, US President (2009-2017)
Speech (2004-07-26) Keynote, Democratic National Convention, Boston

In honor of U.S. Independence Day, I decided to re-read the Declaration of Independence. This is well worth a read - these are powerful words that are as important and relevant now as when they were written 250 years ago. Here’s just a section of it; you can read the entire text at https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcript (and be sure to vote this Fall!).

A quotation from Martin Luther King

If our nation had done nothing more in its whole history than to create just two documents, its contribution to civilization would be imperishable. The first of these documents is the Declaration of Independence and the other is that which we are here to honor tonight, the Emancipation Proclamation. All tyrants, past, present and future, are powerless to bury the truths in these declarations, no matter how extensive their legions, how vast their power and how malignant their evil.

A quotation from Truman

The Constitution and the Declaration of Independence can live only as long as they are enshrined in our hearts and minds. If they are not so enshrined, they would be no better than mummies in their glass cases, and they could in time become idols whose worship would be a grim mockery of the true faith. Only as these documents are reflected in the thoughts and acts of Americans can they remain symbols of a power that can move the world.

A quotation from Coolidge

The doctrine of the Declaration of Independence, predicated upon the glory of man, and the corresponding duty of society, is that the rights of citizens are to be protected with every power and resource of the State, and a government that does any less is false to the teachings of that great document, of the name American.

A quotation from John Adams

The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. — I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.

John Adams (1735–1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797–1801)
