Today is Independence Day. The krewe here at Jacques Barack wish you a happy one to enjoy with friends and family. We also want you to remember the hard work that it took to make this country. We don't enjoy our freedoms because of some freak accident. We had to work for these freedoms. And some of us weren't even equal citizens on this day. It took another century before some Americans could enjoy their freedoms. It we want a better Alexandria, we have to work for it. It doesn't just happen. If you have not already, take a first step today and vote in our polls. You owe it to your city.
