The Statue's right foot is raised to symbolize her walking away from unjust treatment and slavery. WOW! Every person who values freedom needs to read this book and learn the importance of Lady Liberty's right foot. This powerful message has been under foot since 1886, and thanks to author Dave Eggers, we are aware of "Her Right Foot."
According to travel writer, Sophie Christie, in the article :
