Today, we honor Juneteenth's historical significance and legacy as a time for both celebration and reflection. Juneteenth, named for June 19th, 1865, marks the day Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, announcing the freedom of over 250,000 enslaved Black people, nearly two years after the Emancipation Proclamation and two months after the Civil War ended. Learn more by exploring local resources, supporting educational initiatives, and participating in community events. At The Paramount Group Chicago, we are committed to fostering inclusivity and awareness and to continuing to work towards equity and justice for all.
