Every #Juneteenth, we celebrate the end of slavery. We are reminded today that progress can be slow and that there is still work to be done to create a more equitable freedom as the holiday commemorates the Emancipation Proclamation being enforced in Texas almost 2 years, and 9 months after originally being issued.
