Honoring Juneteenth: A Continued Commitment to Justice ✊🏾 This #Juneteenth, we remember and celebrate the bravery and resilience of those who fought to abolish slavery. However, the struggle continues... Today, as we celebrate Juneteenth, we renew our commitment to justice and equality. We must continue to work together to dismantle structures of oppression and ensure that none of us are free until ALL of us are free. 📣 What steps can you take today to promote justice and equality? #JusticeForAll #BlackHistory #CivilRights #EmancipationDay #EqualityForAll #RacialJustice #Inclusion #Diversity #BlackLivesMatter #SocialJustice #FreedomForAll
This #Juneteenth, we honor those who fought to abolish slavery and continue our fight for freedom while celebrating the Black community’s rich and diverse history. Juneteenth marks when enslaved Black Americans in Texas were notified of their freedom in 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed. Today, systemic racism, targeted misinformation, and racial injustice continue to challenge true Black liberation. So, on Juneteenth, as our collective works to fight for justice, let’s recommit to our fight for Black freedom. We’re not free until we’re ALL free.
