kBURST

Feeling nostalgic, I decided to reflect upon a childhood tradition - one that extended back farther than even my grandmother. It is always surprising to revisit and examine events through current beliefs. What seemed innocent back then can seem profane today. Remember, this is common in the study of history.

Here is the manuscript for the podcast.

Are you ready for an American History kburst?

As I reflect upon the events surrounding the 4th of July, my memory stretches back to the Vailed Profet Parade … whose history in St. Louis reflects the evolution from elitism to realism. Study the history of this event and you will witness first hand how a large midwestern city came to grips with the devisive issues from its beginning in 1878.

Shrowded in mysticism - affluence and elitism have long existed in America … as it has throughout the world. However, life and death visit upon men and women from all stations. The rich and poor. The strong and weak. The powerful and the powerless. I long for a day when independence day becomes a universal celebration of humanities victory over whatever forces are designed to separate us from one another.
