From the Black Pastors Group | Juneteenth 2023

Jun 07, 2023
Juneteenth, also known as Emancipation Day or Freedom Day, holds profound significance in the history of the United States. On this day, we commemorate the emancipation of enslaved African Americans and recognize the ongoing struggle for equality and justice. Juneteenth should be more than just a date on the calendar; it should be a "Day of Observation and Remembrance"—a day to reflect on the past, celebrate the present, and envision a future where all are truly equal.
