What Is The Meaning Of the Declaration Of Independence For New Yorkers

New York ~ The United States of America was named after the birth of the Declaration of Independence to become an independent nation on July 2, 1776.  The significance of the Declaration of Independence for U.S. born citizens was to regain their rights against Great Britain by creating an American "rebellion" so that a "REVOLUTION" was recognized.  Englishmen fought in the war during April 19, 1775, until July 2, 1776, against colonists for this right to be independently free of what was taken by the British during 1763-1775.  No one wanted to pledge Allegiance to the British Crown in the Americas to be controlled by the English and the Scots.  As a result of colonization of the Americas, to end the British Empire in America rivaled by the Spanish American Colonies in military combat to expand the Caribbean economy, South America, most of Central America, and much of North America, the Spanish American wars of Independence ended in the emancipation of most Sp

How Did You Get Interviewed?

New York ~ Last year Go Doctorate Go Media opened up a press release Bubble of Health & Wellness stories for the Black Community to understand the positive identities and acknowledgments documented by the signer of this media (after being interviewed by a Retired Judge).    An affirmation was later presented to the Celebrity public under the "ABC" rule....."I swear it was me!"  The truth, the Proof, so help me God!  After an overwhelming response of love acknowledged by the Black Community verified by photos, the reality has now set this platform free to affirm another Fist/Hand into the Holy Book.  I am, or I was Denise Fitzgerald, who told your stories and business models to provide a physical description of my identity ~ (a Black Native American).

The answer is the public, the clarity, and the insight into society's biggest problems for researchers like me and academics to provide insight into new and exciting possibilities for others to draw their conversations.  Engaging and learning from an experience or a news story creates an open site for people around the world to reflect sharing their best practices and collaborations for smart, sustainable solutions.  For many it creates the foundation of fact-finding or fact-based forum to discuss change free of commercial or political bias.  Hooray!
