The History
April 19, 1775 - now celebrated as Patriots' Day - was the beginning of the Revolutionary War.  That momentous day began with Paul Revere’s midnight ride, was ignited by British troops killing 8 and wounding 10 at Lexington (“Don’t fire unless fired upon...but if they mean to have war, let it begin here”), and exploded at Concord’s North Bridge where Americans finally returned fire with the “Shot heard ‘round the world”.

Goal of America

"...may I say in conclusion that our goal is freedom and I believe that we're going to get there.   It's going to be more difficult from here on in but I believe we're going to get there because however much she strays away from it, the goal of America is freedom and our destiny is tied up with the destiny of America. Before the Pilgrim fathers landed at Plymouth we were here. Before Jefferson etched across the pages of history the majestic words of the Declaration of Independence we were here. Before the beautiful words of the Star Spangled Banner were written we were here..."

- from Speech given at Grosse Pointe High School, March 14, 1968
