Honoring Juneteenth – June 19

Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when the last enslaved people in the United States were finally informed of their freedom. It is a solemn reminder of our nation’s history and a celebration of Black liberation and resilience. This Juneteenth, take some time to consider the road we have taken to get here, and how much more work there is to be done.
