Juneteenth for many in our country is a day of celebration, marking the at least symbolic end of slavery in the United States on June 19th, 1865. It is an important celebration that should be honored by all, particularly as many would want to erase part of our history. Given that this day was over 2 months after Lee's surrender at Appomattox, almost 3 years after the Emancipation Proclamation (which only applied to areas occupied by Confederate forces), and a month after the disbanding of the Confederate military department in Texas (not to mention after the ratification of the United States Constitution decades earlier), Juneteenth can very possibly be an example of the Rev. Dr. King's statement that "justice too long delayed is justice denied." I believe those of us who identify as white and continue to enjoy the privileges our culture extends with that, we must be mindful of the ongoing work we each need to do both internally, in our families, our communities, our places of employment, in our civic engagements, our faith communities, and any other sector of our lives as we move toward equity and inclusion for all persons. For many of us, we must be careful not to think a celebration absolves us from the work that still needs to be done. Dr. Jemar Tisby speaks to Juneteenth [https://lnkd.in/gTSgeH4H]. I welcome his voice as a scholar, an activist, and a person of faith. I also share a prayer from the Catholic Climate Covenant. I am always wary when "thoughts and prayers" are invoked, but I also believe in it importance as well. #diversityinclusion #juneteenth #equityandinclusion #equitydiversityinclusion #restorativejustice

In a world that often values self-interest & personal gain, it’s important to remember the power of sacrifice & selflessness. Sacrifice is the ultimate act of love & compassion, demonstrating our willingness to put others before ourselves. Whether it’s giving up our time, resources, or even our own desires, sacrifice has the ability to inspire & encourage those around us. The ultimate test of a man's conscience may be his willingness to sacrifice something today for future generations whose words of thanks will not be heard. Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness. What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains & is immortal. #iQor #MemorialDay iQor

Today we celebrate a landmark moment in American history, Juneteenth – a day that signifies the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States 159 years ago. Also known as Freedom Day, it’s a day that is not only a celebration of freedom and human rights, but also a stark reminder of the resilience, strength, and contributions of African Americans to the socio-economic fabric of this nation. This day serves as a reminder that diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just buzzwords but values that we should integrate into both our personal and professional lives. And as a community of professionals, while we strive for success, innovation, and growth, we should also be striving for understanding, empathy, and solidarity. So, as we commemorate Juneteenth, let's do more than just remember - let's act. Today and always, let's educate ourselves, engage in meaningful conversations, and make tangible efforts to ensure that our workplaces reflect the values this day represents.

#OnThisDay in 1865, General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX, to read Order No. 3, which affirmed the end of slavery in the states of the former Confederacy. This momentous occasion has been celebrated as #Juneteenth — a combination of "June" and "19th" — for over 150 years. Though President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January 1st, 1863, freed all enslaved people in the Confederacy, its announcement and enforcement relied upon the presence of Union troops, including members of the United States Colored Troops. Although some were aware of the implementation of the Emancipation Proclamation, it wasn't enforced by the Union Army in Galveston, TX, until June 19th, 1865. Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of ending slavery in the United States. Today, annual Juneteenth celebrations include family reunions, religious sermons, barbecues, and much more. Two years ago, President Joe Biden opened the signing of Juneteenth into law as a federal holiday with these words: "Juneteenth marks both the long, hard night of slavery and subjugation, and a promise of a brighter morning to come."
