  2. On July 4, 1976, I was almost 7. My family lived in Janesville, Wisconsin then. I remember having a picnic on the banks of the Rock River and watching fireworks. I remember thinking that it was amazing to be alive then, and I remember wondering about the next 100 years.

    I figured it wasn't super-likely that I'd be around in 2076, but I did think I'd see 2026. Given that I was starting to get an interest in space and rockets and being an astronaut, I distinctly remember thinking that by 2026, the world would be awesome - moon bases, space stations (Skylab mark 40 or something). I am sure I was barely aware of war, poverty, disease, the environment if at all, but I am sure I just thought people would figure it out and learn to get along.

    I wonder if there are 7-year-olds out there today who have the kind of optimism about the world that I did then. I hope they actually get to see their dreams manifested.

    And I hope they can find it in their hearts to forgive us for making it so difficult for them.

  3. The Fourth Of July Lesson We Need To Heed

    We have red, white, and blue bunting on our staircase that goes to the second floor. James is an amateur vexillologist and has a series of flags flying at our home that highlight the history of the national celebration taking place in ten days. Doubtless, we will light the grill and enjoy fireworks with friends. But with all the recollections about our past, and what the Fourth of July means, we also recognize the clouds that hang heavily over our land. I suggest that if the Founding Fathers […]

  5. @Tengrain For the Constitutionally prescribed general elections, vote 🗳️ for the person you want to be your #USpol representative, regardless of party affiliation, if any. Duh.

    If enough patriotic #Americans follow the #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting the corrupt political parties will eventually shrivel up and die. 🙏 ✅

    Until that happy day, practitioners can celebrate #July4th with a different spelling!

  7. "What, to the #American slave, is your Fourth of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross #injustice and cruelly to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a #sham; your boasted #liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling #vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of #tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere #bombast, #fraud, #deception, #impiety, and #hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices, more shocking and bloody, than are the people of these #UnitedStates, at this very hour."
