“Our democracy is worth fighting for, worth dying for because it's the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man.”
— Kamala Harris
Simplified Meaning:
Democracy is a system where everyone has a say in how the country is run. It values each person's voice and protects their rights. Just like in a family where everyone gets to share their ideas and make decisions together, in a democracy, citizens vote and have a part in shaping laws and policies. This makes it fair and just, compared to other systems where only a few people hold all the power. Because of the fairness and respect it upholds, people believe it is worth defending, even with their lives if necessary. For example, many people fought for the right to vote or against unjust rulers to keep their countries democratic. In everyday life, showing respect for voting and participating in community decisions upholds the values of democracy.
