Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that marks the end of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the freedom of enslaved African Americans, more than two years after President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is not just a celebration of freedom; it’s a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of African Americans. It’s a day to reflect on our history, recognize the struggles and achievements of Black communities, and commit to the ongoing fight for equality and justice. As we celebrate, let's take time to: - Educate ourselves and others about the history and significance of Juneteenth. - Support Black-owned businesses and uplift Black voices in our communities. - Advocate for policies that address racial inequalities and promote social justice. - Celebrate the rich cultural heritage and contributions of African Americans to our society. Happy Juneteenth! Let’s continue to work towards a future where freedom and equality are truly enjoyed by all. 🖤✊🏽 #motivrei #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #BlackHistory #CelebrateFreedom #EqualityForAll
