"Lafayette Park, located in the heart of Washington D.C., offers a rich historical backdrop to the USA's political landscape. Once the site of protests, as suffragist Lucy Branham burned "hollow phrases" of President Woodrow Wilson's peace rhetoric in 1918, it now stands as a tranquil green space overlooking the White House. The park's storied past also includes a memorial statue to General Gilbert de Lafayette, a French hero of the American Revolution. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, St. Louis, Missouri, was devastated by a cyclonic storm in 1870, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. Fast forward to the present, and Lafayette Park remains a beloved landmark, where tourists gather to capture views of the iconic White House, reflecting the enduring allure of America's past and present.
