Childless cat mom, attorney, supporter of democracy, equality, humanity, and other things.
9️⃣ Independence means equity.
Let all people — regardless of race, gender, income, ability, or status — have:

Healthcare 🏥
Reproductive autonomy 🧕🏽
Economic security 💵
Safety from violence 🚨
Full representation 🗳️
Anything less isn’t liberty — it’s exclusion dressed in red, white, and blue.

2/ The Declaration of Independence said “all men are created equal.” But in 2025, the U.S. reflects staggering inequality:
👮🏽 Police kill Black Americans at 3.5x the rate of whites (EPI)
🧑🏽‍💼 Top 1% hold more wealth than bottom 90% (Pew)
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” — MLK Jr.

1/ We commemorate a promise: freedom, equity, dignity, and safety. But for millions—especially in marginalized communities—that promise remains unfulfilled.

“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.” — Abraham Lincoln

7/4 celebrates liberty, but for many in America, this is a myth. Flags wave & fireworks burst, but millions face injustice, inequality, censorship, & rising oppression - from racial & gender disparities to attacks on healthcare, the working class, & civil rights. This is hypocrisy, not freedom. 🧵
