Editorial: Despite deep cracks in the Liberty Bell

Despite cracks in the structure, The Liberty Bell is a symbol of freedom that holds steadfast to the ideal of creating a democracy truly dedicated to liberty and justice for all. The bell rang in 1776 to notify local communities of major events and call public leaders to meetings. Today, we celebrate The Liberty Bell as a symbol of local information that bares the soul of a colorful, complicated and imperfect unions. Happy July 4th holiday from Davidson Local! #letfreedomring
