“Happy belated 4th of July to the Americans July 2, 1776, was meant for. Not the American's; some of whom's ancestors fought for the British against a nation that DIDN'T then, COULDN'T after The Emancipation Proclamation, and still CAN'T seem to recognize our basic human rights.”

“We honor those who fought to secure our rights and freedoms. We praise those who continue to protect these valuable rights. We thank those who exercise their freedoms with wisdom, reverence, and respect. And we forgive those who lack appreciation for and perhaps awareness of the high price it costs for the freedoms they profit from daily.”

“Flag Cruelty Fraught (The New American Anthem) Say, can you see, The darkness we've caused? Our star spangled banner, Is a flag cruelty fraught. It ain't land of the free, It ain't home of the brave. Where looks define dignity, Is but humanity's grave. Slavery is alive as racism, Bigotry still claims dominion. First we must treat these ailments, Or else, for us there is no dawn. O say, it's time to abolish all false glory. Forget valor, let's first practice equality.”

“This Fourth of July, instead of celebrating your Americanness, do something to redeem your humanness. Anybody can become a super power by exploiting and abusing others - that's not greatness, it's bestiality - but to grow super without trampling on anybody, that's greatness - better yet, to grow super together with everybody, that's absolute greatness.”
