There probably isn’t a more obvious and overt celebration of this like there was yesterday. It was definitely a celebration, but as a nation, I’m not sure we celebrated together. I guess that’s typical of Americans – celebrating on our owns – but a celebration nonetheless.
If you had to describe how American’s celebrate their independence day – how would you describe it? Barbecues? Fireworks? Food?
When we were watching the fireworks show over at the beach last night – there was a car full of people and as they drove past us – they yelled out “America.” I guess that counts.
But I would hope that our American identity can be much more than just us screaming it.
