The 155th anniversary of being African in America and free-ish (formally from slavery)! Praise my Ancestors for all their hard work and strife so that I can have choice and opportunity. Learn more about Juneteenth. We are not all free till the last of us are.

Also, it’s nice to see so many peoples all around the world stepping up for Black Life at this time. Especially the indigenous First Nations. So much support is visible that wasn’t before. It brings a smile to this pretty brown skin.

“The Juneteenth celebration was a time for reassuring each other, for praying and for gathering remaining family members. During Juneteenth we acknowledge the African American spirit and pay tribute to the roles and contributions which have enriched our society. Juneteenth today, celebrates African American freedom and achievement, while encouraging continuous self-development and respect for all cultures.”

Celebrate Juneteenth! Freedom Day.
