The Statue of Liberty
- Freedom, Liberty, Rights, Law & Justice
A Democratic Republic, a 'Great Experiment' in the United States
A foundation of rights, human rights, individual rights, put forward with and embodied in a founding Constitution, Bill of Rights and government envisioning a living Democratic Republic. Ours is a democracy, a republic, a work-in-progress continuing to this day, a heritage worth protecting... “We hold these truths to be self-evident”.... “all men are created equal”... they have the right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”, and with rights to live under a government of their own choosing.
We recall a quote of Benjamin Franklin responding to a question in 1787 about the newly announced birth of the US as he left Independence Hall after the Constitutional Convention:
We have "a Republic, if you can keep it."
The Statue of Liberty, Torch of Freedom, with message of 'breaking the chains'
Opportunity, human rights, and the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
