Meet the internXL scholars interning at LogicMonitor this summer!

As we celebrate the 4th of July, it is crucial to reflect on the deeper significance of this holiday and its ties to Black history. July 4 commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, marking the birth of our nation. Yet, for many Black Americans, the day has complex and deeply intertwined meanings with our ongoing struggle for true #freedom and #equality. Frederick Douglass eloquently addressed these complexities in his famous 1852 speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?”, where Douglass challenged the nation to live up to its ideals of liberty and justice. Throughout his remarks, he passionately highlighted the glaring contradiction between the celebration of freedom and the continued enslavement of Black people. Understanding this history is essential as we celebrate #IndependenceDay. It reminds us that the quest for liberty and justice is ongoing and that we must continue to fight for an America that truly represents its founding values and all its citizens. My passion for recognizing and contextualizing Black history in America’s broader historical narrative is rooted in the belief that understanding our past is vital to shaping our future. By recognizing the contributions and struggles of Black Americans, we honor their legacy and continue to work toward a more #equitable society. Happy Independence Day.
