4th of July special
Fireworks burst on the National Mall above the Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument and the US Capitol building during Independence Day celebrations, July 4, 2024, in Washington.
For The World’s Independence Day special, we celebrate with a sort of “mixtape” of reprisals of summer-themed stories from across the globe about everything from music festivals to an old-school beach drink to palm trees in Iraq.
