What Freedom Means to Me

Freedom: the quality or state of being free. My definition of freedom is for people not to be ruled brutally and to have the right to say, write, and believe in what they want to. President Abraham Lincoln fought to keep his country together and to give the same rights to everyone in the United States. To begin with, when I think of freedom, I think of the U.S.A., but freedom isn’t just for the U.S., it’s for other countries too. But sadly some countries aren’t free; they’re under a *dictatorship, like China, Cuba, and North Korea. U.S. citizens have rights that other countries don’t have. The Bill of Rights gives us the freedom of speech, religion, and the press. Let’s go back to Abraham Lincoln.
