A NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM

Gettysburg Address movie at the Gettysburg Museum

Freedom, like power, will always be contested.

Freedom–one small word that changed the course of human history. In the Gettysburg Address, given just a few short months after the epic battle, President Abraham Lincoln called for "a new birth of freedom," and consequently redfined the United States. Today, we cherish our freedoms, and we can never forget how they were born–out of sacrifice, bravery and devotion to a purpose larger than self. The events that unfolded at Gettysburg in 1863 speak to us today with a relevance that is humbling and, to some, shocking. It is here, at Gettysburg, that we are reminded that freedom, like power, will always be contested. And it is here that we, ourselves, are called to "a new birth of freedom," inspired to protect and defend all that we hold dear. (Shown in conjunction with the Cyclorama Experience.)
