Douglas means that the 4th of July is a celebration of freedom, but how could African Americans celebrate a day of freedom if they were still enslaved? The audience spoken to was primarily white, so in turn, the white population of America may celebrate their freedom on the 4th but for all the enslaved blacks it was not a day to rejoice because they had not yet gained their freedom

President Anwar Sadat of Egypt had worked together with Israel's prime minister Menachem Begin, at the urging of US President Jimmy Carter. They met at Camp David in the US for 12 days in September of 1978, and worked out the Camp David Accords. Egypt and Israel later signed the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty in March of 1979 -- a peace between Egypt and Israel that has lasted to the present day.
Sadat, however, paid a price for his peace efforts. Islamist activists in Egypt heatedly opposed him because of his moderation. Sadat was assassinated in October, 1981.
