Let's show the world America can still be Land of the Free & Home of the Brave
Freedom is the soul of democracy, of America... Freedom of speech, worship, press & assembly.
It's the power to elect leaders, to question them, & to replace them. It shows in quiet courage, chants for justice & peace at protests, & the enduring promise that this nation belongs to all its people.
The last live update will be when the flag reaches Swanton for the closing ceremony. Thankyou all for joining us in this journey.
This flag day, we share the message, "We haven't wanted Kings in America since 1776 and we still don't want one"
