The Liberty Ride For All


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LIBERTY RIDE OVERCOMES STEREOTYPES AND RECLAIMS AMERICA WITH LIBERTY, JUSTICE, AND EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL National Motorcycle Event Promotes Equal Rights for All May 19, 2024 Motorcyclists with a mission to embrace justice for all will arrive in St. Louis Missouri carrying a copy of The Bill of Rights and transfer it to the next group of riders at Westview Middle School on May 20, 2024 as part of a nationwide relay-journey that began on May 5, Ride for Liberty for All Day. The fifth annual Ride for Liberty is crisscrossing the U.S., relaying copies of the Declaration of Independence, our Constitution, its Bill of Rights, and the Emancipation Proclamation across all 50 state borders before converging in Washington, D.C. mid-September. Their mission is to remind the nation and its leaders of the principles laid down by the Founding Fathers, with a nonpartisan emphasis on liberty and justice for all. Since its inception, the Liberty Riders have grown in numbers and the event has taken on a life of its own. They remain convinced that America is too great a country to be left to one or another body of political extremists, and that it is incumbent on them and others to seek a more unifying vision that will once again encourage Americans to work together for the good of all. The diversity of those participating in the Liberty Rides illustrates that We the People means all of us. The Liberty Rideâ„¢ is dedicated to the shared vision and mission of an evolving and more perfect union in which the Constitution applies to all, regardless of where we or our ancestors were born; whom we love; the color of our skin; or how or if we worship. This year, riders seek to pay homage not just to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but to all the heroes who sacrificed and devoted their lives to civil rights and liberties, stiving to enable all to be true to themselves, to worship if and how they desire, to love whom they are drawn to, and to live how they choose and pursue their own happiness. They assert that these rights and norms are not guaranteed against a coordinated attack and are only as robust as our willingness to defend them. They carry the affirmation that Civil Rights encompass not only racial justice, but also worker’s rights, women’s rights, the rights of the LGBQT community, and that a threat to the rights belonging to any one of us is a threat to the rights of all. At the present time, plans are still underway for delivery of the documents to official representatives during Constitution week Mid-September, to commemorate the signing of the U.S. Constitution..
