In addition, members of the political group Indivisible Georgia District 10 read the Declaration of Independence at Big City Bread on July 4 itself, preceded by a brief history lesson from Oconee County children's author Gail Karwoski. (Video can be viewed here.)
Three naturalized citizens—Simone Silvershield from the Netherlands, Jimena Vargus Pacora from Peru and Suiata Ivengar from the U.K.—also shared what the declaration means to them. (Watch that video here.)
