Please join AID in celebrating Juneteenth! Today we celebrate the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States and honor the rich history and contributions of Black culture. Juneteenth, also known as Emancipation Day or Freedom Day, commemorates June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that the Civil War had ended and that enslaved people were now free. This momentous occasion came over two years after President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, highlighting both the delayed enforcement of freedom in the remote parts of the Confederacy and the ongoing struggle for equality. As we reflect on Juneteenth, it's essential to recognize the resilience and perseverance of the Black community throughout centuries of adversity and injustice. Juneteenth is not only a celebration of freedom but also a reminder of the continuous fight for civil rights and equality. It's a time to educate ourselves, amplify Black voices, and advocate for systemic change to ensure justice and equality for all. #Juneteenth #Juneteenth2024 #FreedomDay #EmancipationDay
