Juneteenth
Honoring Our Past, Inspiring Our Future
| |
|
Juneteenth commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States. Rooted in the announcement of freedom in Texas on June 19, 1865, it symbolizes the ongoing struggle for equality and justice. Celebrated with gatherings, parades, and reflections on history, Juneteenth serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of the Black community. It's a time to honor the sacrifices of those who fought for freedom while inspiring future generations to continue the pursuit of equality and justice for all.
