🖤❤️💚 Juneteenth: Celebrating Freedom and Resilience 💚❤️🖤
Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that marks the true end of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, news of freedom finally reached the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas – more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed.
Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, resilience, and the enduring spirit of African Americans. It's a time to reflect on our history, recognize the progress made, and recommit to the ongoing fight for equality and justice.
Let’s celebrate the rich culture, history, and contributions of the Black community. Together, we can build a future where freedom and equality are truly for everyone.
