“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

This captures was taken at Deer Creek just north of Indianapolis, Indiana. The protest of farmers had gathered just before the Farm Aid concert.
In the story D is for DEMOCRACY, Freedom & Independence.
