135 YEARS AND STILL HOPING
135 YEARS AND STILL HOPING
She arrived in New York Harbor…June 17, 1885
after sailing across the sea.
She came to us in pieces…
our Statue Of Liberty.
She now stands in that same harbor
representing the hopes and dreams of people who just want to be free…
people who want to be treated as equals…
our Statue of Liberty.
And she reminds us how not one of us is truly free…
until all of us are free
perhaps this is the year we’ll heed the message
of our Statue of Liberty.
