A worthy image on Getaway Day, ahead of tomorrow's holiday:
Oscar Innocent, originally from Nigeria, and Cristian Diaz, born in the Dominican Republic, take the Oath of Allegiance to the U.S. yesterday during a naturalization ceremony at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library in Manhattan.
30 new U.S. citizens attended the Independence Day-themed ceremony.
The citizenship candidates originated from 19 countries, including Brazil, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Germany, India and Indonesia.
