"[Celebrating the Fourth of July] is further complicated by the fact that it is precisely the forces that are working hard to subvert democracy and the people supporting those who are leading the reactionary assault who will be celebrating the loudest today."

"They are celebrating their exclusive, discriminatory version of 'real America,' they believe it’s their prerogative to define what it means to be a 'patriot' in this country: Someone who is drunk on the idea of American superiority and aggressively defends the traditional order."
"Their disdain for the notion that all people are created equal is palpable, their political project is defined by their refusal to abandon discriminatory hierarchies of race, gender, and religion. 'We are America, it is ours to rule' is their dogma."
It is we who believe in equality and inclusivity throughout American society who are the real patriots for wishing to make the promise of the United States, that all people are created equal with equal opportunity, a reality.
For a few years we came only so far, and now the reactionary forces of evil are pushing back — HARD! We must RESIST and overcome!
