A broken shackle and chains at the feet of the Statue of Liberty is an apt symbol for how we treat our history.
The original inspiration for the monument was emancipation, not immigration.
The U.S. has juggled dichotomies and hypocrisies in our national identity from the very beginning.
In some ways, the evolution of the design of the Statue of Liberty is representative of how we've chosen to portray ourselves as a nation.
We want people to think: Hey, look at our Declaration of Independence! See how we welcome immigrants! We're so great! The foundation of true liberty and justice for all, even with all its cracks, is still there.
