The following is a letter from Quillette editor Claire Lehmann.
America is celebrating its 250th anniversary in 2026.
This is a moment for reflection on the nation’s past, present, and future.
The country has faced many challenges and triumphs throughout its history, and it continues to evolve.
As we approach this milestone, it’s important to consider the ideals upon which America was founded: liberty, equality, and the pursuit of happiness.
These ideals have inspired generations and continue to shape the nation’s identity.
However, the interpretation and application of these ideals have also been subjects of ongoing debate and struggle.
America’s journey has been marked by significant achievements, from its role in global conflicts to its advancements in science and technology.
Yet, it has also grappled with internal divisions, social injustices, and economic disparities.
These complexities are part of the American narrative.
Looking ahead, the nation faces new challenges and opportunities.
The way America navigates these will determine its trajectory in the years to come.
It is a time for thoughtful consideration of its values and its place in the world.
