Juneteenth 🤝🏿 Independence Day

The fight for racial justice in America is rooted in challenging the nation to live up to the principles on which it was founded.

#IndependenceDay and Juneteenth are two interconnected chapters in the same story of progress. 💪🏿🇺🇸

Families throughout America join in celebrating Juneteenth, and this year, our brothers and sisters in D.C. had a beautiful celebration!

As #IndependenceDay approaches, we eagerly anticipate more opportunities to celebrate and embrace unity and progress. 💪🏿🇺🇸 therealopallee

“When I first rolled up to her, she said, ‘I’m not just the Grandmother of Juneteenth, I’m your grandmother.” – Leon Ford on his first #Juneteenth with therealopallee.

“We have constitutional rights because of the sacrifices made by our ancestors. Embrace your confidence and know that you belong, capable of achieving anything you put your mind to.” – @unitedbarriers 🇺🇸💪🏿

“If anybody feels a way toward the Fourth of July or Juneteenth, I would just offer up space for them to share how they feel, why they feel what they feel, and leverage my curiosity to get to understand them as individuals.” — Leon Ford
