Juneteenth celebrations have been happening across the United States for years, but over the last few years the day’s profile has been elevated as a result of heightened awareness of racial inequality.
For those of you who may not be familiar with the origins of Juneteenth – the day represents the oldest known nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States on June 19, 1865.

On this Juneteenth, we embrace the opportunity to reflect and rejoice, while continuing to improve as a society and move forward to learn more and do more to address racism and racial inequality.
