Definition of liberty
The term “liberty” is used in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution. It means that people have the right to be free from unreasonable control by the government. This includes more than just physical control, but also the freedom to make choices for oneself.
- The right to choose one's own religion
- The right to marry and start a family
- The right to work in any job one chooses
- The right to learn and acquire knowledge
- The right to be free from unjust punishment
These examples illustrate how liberty means that people have the right to make choices for themselves and live their lives as they see fit, as long as they are not harming others or breaking the law.
Where you see wrong or inequality or injustice, speak out, because this is your country. This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on.

Study hard, for the well is deep, and our brains are shallow.
