In the words of Thomas Campell, “The patriot’s blood is the seed of Freedom’s tree.”This quote shows that many soldiers died for all Americans to have freedom,to get to choose the way they live. Many americans take for granted the fact that those generous people put their lives at stake for us to live the American dream. In America, we have many freedoms that other countries and cities don’t have and may never have.For example, in America you can listen to any type of music, christian, pop, country,rap,anything but in North Korea if you listen to a certain type of music it can get you killed or you can get really bad consequences.Also in some countries of Asia if a kid looks at an adult while they are speaking to them it is considered
For as long as we can remember, we’ve been told that the freedom of our country was the work of such inspirations such as George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, but there were a number of other patriots who’ve long been forgotten by everyone, and it is time to recognize their efforts. This is the overall theme of Nathaniel Philbrick’s Bunker Hill, a marvelous book that recaps the highlights of the birth of our nation, while adding new insights into our knowledge.
fought to protect the citizens in this country so there wouldn't be any harm made of
Freedom, independence, and liberty are all amazing things, but they all come at a cost. People are being asked to sacrifice to get freedom, one of the best words a man can speak. It is the winter of 1778, and I have been serving in the Continental army. I could go home, but I could choose to stay with the Americans to fight for liberty and independence from Britain. I trust General Washington on the battlefield, but we are not getting the best that we can get in the barracks.
In North Korea the people can only watch tv or listen to music run by the government. Also if you live in North Korea you cannot freely leave the country. Out of all of the things Kim Jung-Un does to abuse his power this stuck out the most if a person doesn't obey Kim Jung-Un's rules he does what he wishes with them. North Korea currently has 16 operating labor camps and prisoners are put there for something as simple as stealing a kernel of corn. Another thing he does is he will just kill you if he thinks you have committed some kind of crime.
After the Civil War, the United State began to experience an industrial growth that was unparalleled to any nation. There were new advancements among America’s transportation, manufacturing and agriculture industries. While an economic growth was occurring in the nation, the national government was inactive, almost forgotten between all the new innovations achieved during the late 19th century. Looking back at the Industrial Revolution, there are many perspectives of the events that occurred during this time. Two readings on the late 19th century, The Patriot’s History of the United States, by Larry Schweikart and The People’s History of the United States, by Howard Zinn, have their own takes. The perspectives on the history, the tone
This would be the freedom that is found in both the heart of Americans and in the constitution that dictates an Americans liberties. The Star Spangled Banner is a piece of work that particularly expresses the happiness and appreciation that the people in this country have because of the sacrifices that others made during the Civil War. Many of the iconic lines in the song states just how amazing it is that the flag can wave so freely over the home of the brave. Americans are indeed proud of the land that they fought for, proud of all the accomplishments that they made over the years and it is certainly something to find fascinating about this country. The soldiers were outnumbered by the British troops and yet, our passion to be free and own the land was enough to push us through harsh winters and tough battles. Something very good about American spirit and America in general is just the determination and pride that we have. Although at times it may be a bit conceded, the hearts of these people are generally in the right
Political freedoms of the people are continuously violating them with unfair laws, which are just for show and discrimination according to class by the dictator Kim Jong-Un. In North Korea, the laws are for show, but the people experiencing the laws know the truth and that they have no rights. According to the “The Problems of Human Rights in North Korea,” “In North Korea, the laws are for show, and the people live outside the protection of the law. The Constitution of North Korea guarantees democratic freedoms such as the freedoms of speech,
During the Revolutionary War many Americans gave their property, their families, and their lives in exchange for freedom. Would you be willing to die so that someone else could be free? Would you give up all your precious and beloved possessions to a cause that seems hopeless and impossible? Is freedom really worth what it costs to obtain? Thomas Paine once said "those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." So in other words men should fight if they wish to be free. Rab and the other minute
Why do Americans fight for freedom? Isn't it a eternal vain war? Perhaps we are disheartened in the insufficiency of others freedom, or are we so fearful that we fight just to defend ourselves. I feel it is our tenacity that we get through the horrendous wars and less significant battles. Freedom is the power to choose and live with our choices. That is why it is so
America has developed many different freedoms and rights such as freedom of speech, right to free exercise, and the right to bear arms. No other country has the same rights. In some places, carrying a gun could possibly get someone killed. It is also illegal in some countries to speak out against someone that is in power, and can be punishable by death or brutality.
Freedom is not free. It is obtained for us by people we don’t know in countries far away. Veterans are the key to keeping our country safe. They were willing to give up their family, friends, security, and even their lives to fight for the rights of those they don’t know. By risking it all, veterans are able to be an inspiration to a whole country.
Many of countries do not have any freedom at all. In some countries if you say something the leader does not agree with you could be executed or thrown in jail. In America, we have freedom of speech and can say whatever is on our mind without being prosecuted. We must keep fighting for our rights every single day or someone could come in and take it all away.
Without these freedoms America wouldn't have the same civilization as we do now. Plus without these freedoms we wouldn't know what everyone thinks it would just be one person, that is why freedoms are important to me. Being an american is very fun as well and is still developing. Just think at all the technology we have made and we are still making more, all the cool the things we have figured about the world and the US. Just thinking about it makes me gasp. We half to give a lot of credit to our veterans because without them who would fight for our rights. Without the military America wouldn't be where we are today and we wouldn't have the same technology or even half the things we have now. That is why every year around veterans I ask what being an american means to me. Being an american is one of the most important things to me because if I wasn't an american I wouldn't have the same rights I do now. To me being american means to be free, to be safe, and to have freedom. So what does being an american mean to
We possess the most powerful and dedicated military in the world. We’re deeply indebted to all currently serving as well as to all that have had their lives taken from them in the battle to keep us strong and free—I’ve never met anyone eagerly awaiting the chance to “GIVE” their lives. I certainly know that I wasn't.
Have you ever wondered who severed for us? Also, why did they want to sacrifice their lives to make us a free country? Maybe, they love this country and did not want to give it up.They wanted to keep us free. You will not know unless you read this.
