  1. Because of extreme hazards of #wildfires the #Republican Governor of #Utah issued a statewide ban on #July4th fireworks.

    Multiple #MAGA Mayors, and self-described #SovereignCitizens ‘lifted the ban’ because of #Freedumb250.

    “Stupid is as stupid as does” and many fires that started in the backyard of a #BasketOfDeplorables are still burning and destroying homes of ‘normies’ across the state. Sad. deseret.com/environment/2026/0

  13. So on July 4th, as the USA was celebrating its stunningly long 250 year history, I spent a big chunk of the day at a Buddhist temple in Wuhan that features this tower.

    This 739 year old tower.

    "Freedom 250" just doesn't really land very hard anymore after staring at this for a while.

  15. On July 5th 1852, exactly 174 years ago today, Frederick Douglass gave a speech at Corinthian Hall here in #RochesterNY, at a gathering of the Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society. His words were blunt and honest, pointing out the hypocrisy about the laudable ideals of liberty and justice promised in the Declaration of Independence. He forced his audience to confront the truth, that the high-minded assertion that "all men are created equal", was NOT actually being extended to all.

    The speech is known under the title "What to the American Slave is Your Fourth of July?" It is well worth reading again now, on this July 5th.

    Here's the complete text of the speech, as published in a pamphlet at the time:

    And here are some central excerpts from the speech, read by some of Douglass's descendants:

  20. 🍄 David Zangwill explores our personal journey from Independence to Global Interdependence.

    Along the journey, David builds a case for why #InTERdependenceDay ought to be celebrated on July 5th, the day after #IndependenceDay in the U.S. museumofself.com/self-interdep
