4th July - United States celebrates it's independence

People in the United States of America are busy celebrating their independence day on Monday, 4th July.

Commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the US commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.

Last year on 4th of July, US president Barack Obama had celebrated American Day of Independence by bashing those wealthy white people, who had their rights before anyone else.

"This is the day when we celebrate the very essence of America and the spirit that has defined us as a people and as a nation for more than two centuries," Obama had told the guests while honouring service members and their families.

"We celebrate the principles that are timeless, tenets first declared by men of property and wealth but which gave rise to what Lincoln called a new birth of freedom in America-civil rights and voting rights, workers' rights and women's rights, and the rights of every American," he had said.

Meanwhile at the box-office, cashing in on the feel-good factor is Transformers sequel 'Transformers 3' that is expected to break all Independence Day records.
