75 of us gather on July 4 to read our nation?s most sacred documents where 19 of us were arrested 3 years ago for protesting GAP sweatshops.

75 of us gather on July 4 to read our nation most sacred documents: Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, Constitution. We gather at Fashion Fair mall where 3 years ago 19 of us were arrested protesting GAP sweatshops. Fashion Fair threatens to arrest us again but in the end a smiling head of security flashes us a peace sign and passes out small American flags. See and hear us at:
