Dennis Prager writes an excellent piece about a new tradition of a Fourth of July Seder.
Too often we have holidays without acknowledging their meaning. We take a day off for Martin Luther King's birthday, but do we ever sit down and think about who he was and what he did? When Columbus Day comes around, most people similarly do nothing (we should be learning our history on this day). What about President's Day? I think we should find ways of using these holidays for more than just time off.
We should reflect on why it is a holiday and why it is important and what sets the United States of America apart from other nations.
Happy Fourth, from Germany.
