Today, we honor Juneteenth, a powerful reminder of resilience, freedom, and progress. On this day in 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free. Let us reflect on the struggles of the past, celebrate the strength of our ancestors, and continue working toward justice, unity, and equality for all. Happy Juneteenth! ❤️💛💚 #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #CelebrateBlackHistory
