A Time for Patriotism and Reflection
The Fourth of July, also known as Independence Day or July 4th, has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941. But the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back much further, to the founding of the nation itself.
Commemorating a Momentous Event
Independence Day commemorates the passage of the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776. This historic document declared the thirteen American colonies' independence from British rule and laid the foundation for the United States of America.
A Day of Patriotism and Festivities
Today, the Fourth of July is a day of patriotism, celebration, and remembrance. Americans across the country gather for barbecues, fireworks displays, and parades to honor the nation's history and values. It is a time to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom and to celebrate the enduring spirit of the United States.
