On July 4th in the United States, Independence Day is celebrated, commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, when the American colonies declared their independence from the United Kingdom. The colors blue, red, and white are emblematic because they are the colors of the United States flag. Each color has its own symbolic meaning:
- Red: Represents valor and bravery.
- White: Symbolizes purity and innocence.
- Blue: Stands for vigilance, perseverance, and justice.
Wearing blue and red (often along with white) on July 4th is a way to show patriotism and pay homage to the nation and its fundamental values. This tradition has been maintained over the years and is expressed not only in clothing but also in decorations, parades, and other festive events.
