"Today Americans celebrate 246 years of independence from the British Empire. On this day in 1776 the Founding Fathers made a declaration. It was a bold and risky action. Never before had a colonial state defeated its overlord, especially at the apex of its global power." — Alex Gladstein
For Independence Day and for all those travelers out there I'm bringing back an absolutely amazing piece by the one and only Alex Gladstein. If you haven't heard it, then you are welcome for bringing it back. If you have heard it already... then you are welcome for bringing it back
