Bicentennial weekend across America inspires patriotic displays
Crowds fill Boston Harbor as USS Constitution readies a 21 gun salute marking independence. July celebrations span the nation with naturalizations for 10,000 new citizens, a Trail of Self-Determination encampment in Washington, and dispersed acts of protest. Astronomical and civic displays tie Hawaii to Boston via a Mauna Kea to Old North Church light event.
