For July 4, the Statue of Liberty as metaphor “You can’t be forever blessed”
Posted July 4, 2025 by Anonymous
I have never seen the Statue of Liberty in person and now I never will, because going to New York is not going to be happening anymore. But for Americans, Lady Liberty exerts a powerful force of symbol and aspiration. Now, as the United States sin…

Interesting Fact of the Month
