As the 4th of July approaches, NPR invites Americans to reflect on the meaning of freedom in their lives. Nearly 250 years after the Declaration of Independence, which marked the country's separation from Britain, this year, the organization is looking to collect personal stories and insights on freedom. Individuals are encouraged to share their thoughts or creative expressions, with the opportunity to be featured in a special newsletter edition. The call for submissions emphasizes engagement with the values celebrated on this national holiday.
Nearly 250 years ago, the Founding Fathers adopted the Declaration of Independence, severing the 13 colonies' connection to Britain and declaring themselves an independent nation.
This year, NPR wants to know how freedom has been on your mind leading up to the holiday. What does freedom mean to you?
