Lady Liberty

This video that says alot is from Kelsie Kimberlin.  The United States is a land of immigrants and indigenous people. Since the first settlers arrived here hundreds of years ago, America has welcomed immigrants in a cultural melting pot always touted as the perfect union. Recently, political actors, racists, and isolationists have launched a direct attack on immigrants thereby assaulting the very essence of the Statue of Liberty and its famous plaque, which states in pertinent part: “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” In “Lady Liberty,” I sing about this heartbreaking dimming down of liberty’s torch, and the loss of freedom and hope for so many people.
