The United States of America just celebrated its 250th birthday. But a birthday is just a date. The real story — who fought for this democracy, who was left out of it, and who kept pushing anyway — that's what we're counting down to. Starting today, we're tracing 250 years of democracy from a civil rights perspective. Two posts a week. All the way to September 29. This September, our 13th Annual March On! Festival continues the story — 250 Years of Democracy: The Unfinished Story. Come along with us. #RoadTo250 #250YearsOfDemocracy #UnfinishedStory #MarchOnFestival marchonfest.org
