that at our best has been
defined by hope and not fear.

50
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:57,784
A country that went
through the crucible of a

51
00:01:57,784 --> 00:02:01,254
civil war to offer a
new birth of freedom.

52
00:02:01,254 --> 00:02:04,123

of Normandy, climbed the

ordinary people mobilize

of civil rights.

00:02:11,331 --> 00:02:13,867
That's who we are.

56
00:02:13,867 --> 00:02:15,702
That's what makes us
stronger than any

57
00:02:15,702 --> 00:02:17,871
act of terror.

58
00:02:17,871 --> 00:02:19,739

flag stands for.
