Happy 4th of July!
As I was making my rounds of sending mass text messages to friends to wish them a “Happy Independence Day,” a friend replied back with a “For some.” It hit me hard. It was 8:20AM. Her respond really got me thinking so I want to share a few words. She’s is absolutely right. We're not free until we are ALL free. There are many people who do not have the same freedoms with differing access to privilege. Can we truly call ourselves the Land of the Free when there are still so many injustices in our society?
