| "Woven of Many Strands"
USA 250
My waving, woven banner honors the distinct and myriad gifts of all races, cultures, and faith traditions that serve to strengthen this vibrant country.
“Woven of many strands” is craft language, not chemistry. Weave doesn’t erase its threads, it organizes them into something that can hold weight. America’s texture — its institutions, its art, its everyday speech — is produced by collision and entanglement, not purity. You can’t vote your way out of plurality. You can only decide whether the weave becomes a durable fabric or a fraying one. — FIXQUOTES
"America is woven of many strands. I would recognize them and let it so remain. Our fate is to become one, and yet many. This is not a prophecy, but a description.”
— RALPH ELLISON
