A century of making history. 💜 Today, we celebrate Opal Lee's 100th birthday!

Known as the “Grandmother of Juneteenth,” she walked across the country to push for a federal holiday. She stood at the White House when that dream became law in 2021 and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2024. Happy birthday, Miss Opal!
