Happy Juneteenth!
Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, Liberation Day or Emancipation, is an annual holiday observing the end of slavery in the United States and marks our country’s second Independence Day.
We commemorate June 19 as the day slaves were truly set free and celebrate our African-American community members, and commit to working together toward equity for all in expanding economic, educational, and career opportunities for everyone in our community.
