Water is a birthright and NOT a commodity. Water belongs to the earth, to other species, and to future generations. No corporation has the right to control it.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

To celebrate a rebellion is to know that, from a flawed world, we can make new things. We can hold on, we can find each other, and not just imagine but create a much better America.
It is a special 250th – it is ours.

[Max Schoening @mschoening]

I was born in Germany, I grew up in Spain, I’ve lived in the US for 15 years, and I’ve been a US citizen for about a year.

I never really understood patriotism until I became American.

Usually, when people move to other countries they are expats. A German in Spain for example. When people move to America they become American.

It’s the greatest country on earth and an experiment worth fighting for.

Happy 4th of July. 🎆

The United States is 3 human lifetimes old.

That’s it. In those short years we invented the light bulb, the telephone, the airplane, the transistor and the internet. We turned a few wooded colonies into the most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Happy 250th, America! ❤️🤍💙

[Only In Boston @OnlyInBOS]

Before the fireworks, Boston honors Independence Day with one of its oldest traditions: a public reading of the Declaration of Independence, just steps from where the American Revolution unfolded.

That was heart-pounding! These pilots took Deborah Roberts along as they performed a flyover above the Statue of Liberty. #DisneyCelebratesAmerica

HAPPY 250th USA! A good day to remember this iconic 1984 photo of construction worker Anthony Soraci, grandson of Italian immigrants, leaning in to kiss the Statue of Liberty while on scaffolding during restoration work.

Wishing You a Blessed Fourth 🙏🏾🇺🇸

Criticizing your government is not un-American.

It’s literally how this country started.

Happy 250th birthday, America! We got you a present. 🇺🇸

The red, white, and blue stars of this globular cluster shine like a sparkler waved on a dark night in this image from @NASAHubble, released in celebration of the United States' 250th anniversary.

Happy Birthday America ❤️

This photograph today deserves a Pulitzer Prize.

A black girl sits in the middle of dozens of white supremacist patriot front members in Washington DC on the Fourth of July.

This is so representative of the country. We’re living in under Donald Trump right now. I want my country back.

Such cowards. Show your faces bitch

[Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @RepPressley]

For America's 250th, I read Frederick Douglass’ speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” on the House floor—for the first time in history.

His speech endures as a mirror & mandate for us all—to confront our inequities while fighting for an America as good as its promise.

Cooper: I've seen governments and dictators rise and fall, people and places torn apart by lies and hate and war. And I've seen people do things and heard them say things that I could never have imagined. I've seen what we humans are capable of when everything else is stripped away. Yes, great acts of barbarism and brutality. But we are also capable of remarkable acts of heroism and kindness. It's a choice, and the choice is up to us

Let's hope 50 years from now, someone standing here or somewhere on the eve of the 300th anniversary of this republic will look back and say of us: they didn’t know if they would make it through but they did.
