Today we honor the strength, resilience and triumph of a people who never gave up on freedom. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when the last enslaved African-Americans in Galveston, Texas were finally informed of their freedom two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
Let us remember.
Let us reflect.
Let us all honor and celebrate freedom for all.
