Synopsis

By Eric Boehm | Watchdog.org Say It Loud, Say It Proud is Watchdog Radio’s weekly look at free speech and First Amendment issues — examining rights among the most important to our society, but also rights most frequently under attack. In this week’s episode, host Eric Boehm explains the idea behind a new national holiday that was celebrated for the first time this week: Freedom Day. The first Freedom Day celebration was hosted by National Constitution Center in Philadelphia. Groups as politically diverse as Cato Institute and the Center for American Progress shared the stage for a day of discourse about the foundations, future and meaning of freedom in the United States. We sat down with Freedom Day founder Frayda Levy and others who attended the event to get an idea of what Freedom Day is all about.
