Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. This is a day of freedom and liberty. It also serves as an opportunity to thank and celebrate all those who have worked to further the civil rights movement, all who sacrificed to advance the cause, and all of those who continue to work till this day.
