The History of Juneteenth

Sunday, June 11, 2023

Juneteenth is one of America's oldest celebrations but has only recently become a federal holiday. Richard Fleming will share his family's history of enslavement before and after the Emancipation Proclamation. He will also discuss the events that led to the celebration of Juneteenth in Texas and beyond, the importance of the holiday, and how it can be used to to celebrate freedom for all.
