Happy Juneteenth!! 🤎 Honoring the enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in Galveston, Texas, on June 19th, 1865-- hence marking the end of slavery in the United States-- Juneteenth is a celebration of Black freedom, jubilance, and community. Join our founder and host, Denia, as she reflects on what this day means as we strive to rest while advocating for change. We hope that you will walk away feeling seen, heard, and hopeful for the future ahead as we embark on the road toward liberation.
