250th Anniversary of Patrick Henry's Speech Sparks Protests
The iconic phrase 'Give me liberty or give me death!' by Patrick Henry marks its 250th anniversary, commemorated by events and protests in Virginia. Originally delivered in 1775 to urge action against British rule, Henry's speech has become a symbol of resistance and is celebrated for its enduring impact on American ideals of liberty. At the anniversary event, hundreds gathered for reenactments and protests, drawing parallels between past and present struggles against perceived tyranny. The phrase's historical context was also highlighted, with reenactments streamed online featuring Patrick Henry Jolly, Henry's fifth great-grandson. Notably, Patrick Henry, known for his strong anti-Federalist views, famously refused positions in Washington's administration, preferring to stay away from public service. The anniversary also saw demonstrations against current political figures, echoing Henry's call for liberty and resistance to perceived oppression.
