Celebrating Juneteenth: This significant day marks the emancipation of the last enslaved African Americans in the United States, symbolizing freedom and the relentless pursuit of equality. Juneteenth is not just a historical milestone; it is a reminder of the progress we've made and the work still ahead in the fight for justice and civil rights. Today, we honor the resilience, culture, and contributions of Black Americans, and we commit to continuing the journey toward true equality and justice for all. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #EqualityForAll #JusticeForAll

Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that marks the end of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the freedom of enslaved African Americans, more than two years after President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is not just a celebration of freedom; it’s a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of African Americans. It’s a day to reflect on our history, recognize the struggles and achievements of Black communities, and commit to the ongoing fight for equality and justice. As we celebrate, let's take time to: - Educate ourselves and others about the history and significance of Juneteenth. - Support Black-owned businesses and uplift Black voices in our communities. - Advocate for policies that address racial inequalities and promote social justice. - Celebrate the rich cultural heritage and contributions of African Americans to our society. Happy Juneteenth! Let’s continue to work towards a future where freedom and equality are truly enjoyed by all. 🖤✊🏽 #motivrei #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #BlackHistory #CelebrateFreedom #EqualityForAll

Today, we remember June 19, 1865— the day the last enslaved African Americans in Texas learned of their freedom, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. While it marked a pivotal moment in American history, the journey to true equity and justice is still ongoing. Juneteenth reminds us to honor the immense courage and perseverance of those who fought for abolition and to reflect on the systemic racism that still endures today through disparities in health, wealth, education, housing, employment, and more. At D&A, we are committed to advancing racial equity through our work, and we invite you to join us in celebrating Black liberation while fortifying our collective commitment to dismantle racism in all its forms. Let us make Juneteenth more than a celebration, but also a continuation of the struggle for freedom, fairness, and human dignity for all. ✊🏾#Juneteenth #RacialEquity #BlackLiberationMovement #JuneteenthDay
