This July 4th, New York Harbor transforms into a floating spectacle with Sail4th 250 — the largest maritime gathering in U.S. history, featuring 41 ships from 21 countries, including 22 U.S. vessels like the modern schooner America 2.0. Set against the backdrop of the city’s rich nautical legacy, from the 1776 Revolutionary War fleet to the 1976 bicentennial parade, this event bridges past and present, inviting spectators to sail alongside history — even taking the helm on iconic vessels — while safety warnings remind all to stay cool under forecasted 105-degree heat.

Happy 4th of July! - A message of Corey

Step back in time to Newark, New Jersey—a city born in 1666, older than the United States and steeped in history from revolution to industry. Discover the Plume House, where celluloid film was invented, and Arts High School, America’s first public arts high school. Wander through the Krueger-Scott Mansion, a brewer’s legacy, and the Tiffany & Company Building, once a manufacturing powerhouse. Meet the Sydenham House, dating to 1711, and Mount Pleasant Cemetery, a resting place for regional icons. From Grace Church’s Gothic Revival spires to the rumored Underground Railroad ties of Old First Presbyterian, Newark’s landmarks whisper tales of faith, resilience, and civil rights. The Cathedral Basilica and Beaux-Arts courthouse stand as monuments to a city that evolved without forgetting its roots.

New Jersey’s late abolition of slavery set the stage for enduring racial wealth gaps that still shape the state today—making it one of the most unequal in the nation. Once dubbed the “slave state of the North,” its delayed emancipation in 1866 left behind systems that blocked Black communities from building assets, from housing restrictions to discriminatory policing. But history isn’t destiny: grassroots movements have always driven change, and today, New Jersey is taking real steps forward—expanding voting rights, restoring civic access, and enacting new protections—proving that justice isn’t just possible, it’s being built, one vote at a time.
