Black Joy is a symbol of hope and empowerment for Black individuals amidst racial challenges. It affirms that they are not just survivors but also thriving agents of change. This spirit has been a source of strength and motivation throughout history. It carried enslaved African ancestors through unimaginable trials, believing that future generations would reap the seeds of freedom they sowed. At #America250, we celebrate Black Joy as a reflection of life, culture, and community. It's about finding positivity and support within ourselves and those around us. It's also a way of healing and resting our body, mind, and spirit. During this #BlackHistoryMonth, we invite you to join us in recognizing and honoring Black Joy. It's not just a concept. It's a movement, a celebration of being, and a legacy that we carry forward.

The Counseling Hub is celebrating Juneteenth today!! Juneteenth is an annual observance on June 19 to remember when Union soldiers enforced the Emancipation Proclamation and freed all remaining slaves in Galveston, Texas on June 19, 1865. Today is also a reminder to educate yourself on Black History, support Black businesses, follow Black-led organizations, and/or learn about Black artists–authors, musicians, dancers, visual artists… the wide-ranging diversity of Black experience and expression! Today is also a reminder to always stand up against oppression, exploitation, injustice, and violence. Wishing everyone a fulfilled Juneteenth! \#juneteenth \#thecounselinghub \#socialjustice

What if I told you that your influence and support is oft times worth more than what’s in your bank account? As we continue to celebrate black history month, while we need more people to speak up, we are grateful for those who have consistently used their voices and resources to effect change and progress along the way. If you desire to support and help improve outcomes for the black community here as a few ways you can help: 1) Be courageous and speak up when you see that something isn’t right. 2) Research and educate yourself rather than assume. 3) Share the information you learn with those that share your identity. - - #blackhistorymonth #keynotespeaker #GoGrowGlow

🙌🏿🙌🏾🙌🏽 Discovering our privilege is just the beginning; what we do with it truly matters. As advocates for justice and equality, we are responsible for taking action. Whether it's amplifying Black voices, supporting Black-owned businesses, educating ourselves and others, or reading Black authors' literature, each of us plays a vital role in driving meaningful change. I recommend exploring the work of my friend Golda Lee Bruce: 'Born on an Island: Stories from a Trinidadian Girlhood.' Let's embrace diverse perspectives and celebrate the rich contributions of Black writers. What's your recommendation for this month?

We should always celebrate Black voices (not just during Black history month), and literature is one of the best ways to honor some of the community’s most illuminating stories. Thanks to the work of African American authors, the world can better understand both the struggles and triumphs of Black people in America.

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, a powerful day of liberation and reflection. As we honor the end of slavery in the United States, let's come together to recognize the enduring strength and resilience of the Black community. This is a moment to reflect on the journey toward freedom and equality, and to energize our collective efforts in the ongoing fight for justice. Partner with us in celebrating Black culture, history, and contributions that continue to shape our world. Together, we can build a future where freedom and equality are truly universal. Did you know? Enslaved people ingeniously used hair braiding as maps for routes of escape from their enslavers. This incredible act of resistance highlights the ingenuity and resilience of those who fought for freedom. After emancipation, Black people have continued to use their hair as an act of celebration, resistance, and a bold expression of self. #Juneteenth #BlackFreedom #CelebrateFreedom #EnergizeChange
