Every Fourth of July, reporters at NPR read the Declaration of Independence. I've always thought that is a great way to wake up on our nation's holiday, so I have added to that the practice of reading the U.S. Constitution as well. I'm finding that to be a fine addition to the practice of watching fireworks, and a reminder of what those bombs bursting in the air are supposed to protect. I invite you to join me in this practice. Read them out loud to your family before you fire up the grill. If you are a ham, make it a theatrical event.
If you want to go further, set aside other days to read from these important documents.
