A July 4th Message from Rage Against the Machine
  The United States of America was founded in revolution, a fact that we
citizens choose to remember only once a year. Ever since, our nation has
worked to destroy the revolutionary works of people around the globe as they
struggle for freedom.
 In 1776, the U.S. was born half-formed, and today the American Revolution
is still only half-finished. Soldiers in the late 1700s fought successfully
to free all Americans from a British yoke, but neglected to free themselves
from their home-grown dictators. When the so-called Founding Fathers spoke
of Freedom, it was a peculiar kind which gave African-Americans the freedom
to toil in chains or die, gave women the freedom to toil meekly in the
kitchen or face a husband's wrath, gave the poor the freedom of impoverished
servitude or death by starvation, and gave Native Americans the freedom of
the conquered or the freedom of the grave. Meet the new boss, worse than the
old boss.
 The American history we learn in schools teaches a scandalous message: if
you just wait quietly, Great Men will come put the wrong things right...
eventually. The media teaches us that those who decide that they will
determine their own fates and reach for justice with both hands are
dangerous, extremists, radicals, criminals, and must be punished for their
transgressions. But if we take a look at REAL history, not that propaganda
from grade school, we learn that there are no Great Men, there are only
Great Movements. Progress is never the story of one man's struggle, but of
the struggles and sacrifices of many people, working tirelessly to do what
must be done.
 Whether or not they meant what they said, we will hold this, and all
societies accountable to the Founding Fathers' most noble words, "We hold
these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal."
 Gandhi once said "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they
fight you, then you win." We've been at stage 3 for a long time now. We've
got work to do.
