This week we asked: What does patriotism look like?
(Read more about political and social activism on our resource page.)
From Shannon: “Last year our preschool group got involved in the democratic process to learn more about our country. Sadly, she didn’t win the race.”

From Kym: “My son loves to help my dad raise the flags in the mornings. We are teaching him proper way to handle the flag, as well as the pledge! It’s a special tradition to pass down to my son!”

At the time, it was the only capitol building in the country with no dome. A dome was added in 2002.
Oklahoma has the only state capitol grounds in the United States with active oil rigs.
