The common thread that connects all Americans is our citizenship. We are a nation bound by the shared values of freedom, liberty, and equality, not by race or religion. What rights do we share as citizens, and what responsibilities do we have to our country? Do we still have the ability to exercise freedom of expression and religion? Do we as citizens support and defend the Constitution, and participate in the democratic process?
