THE LIBERTY BELL WILL RING AGAIN : THE INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY OF AMERICA'S ICONIC SYMBOL OF FREEDOM- THE LIBERTY BELL (AND YES, IT WILL RING AGAIN IN 2026)

On July 4th, 2026, in fact, all that year, America's Liberty Bell and all its brothers and sisters in every state will be ringing out loud and clear to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.  There are many stories surrounding the original Liberty Bell, its crack, and its many renditions both here and abroad, as well as how it is perceived with love and respect by most Americans. It was first given the name 'The Liberty Bell" by the abolishionist movement as they fought for their freedom, and the women's Liberty Bell, which they called the Justuce Bell, was there when they cheered the passage of the 19th amendment giving them the vote. It was there behind the head of Abraham Lincoln as he lay in an open casket on his final trip home.  The story of the Liberty Bell is OUR story, and a big part of what makes America special.
