Happy Juneteenth! To quote John Albuquerque, "Let's make Juneteenth a commemorative, not of the horrific institution our country embraced, but rather as a showcase of the strength in the American spirit to recognize wrong and set about making it right ... Let us celebrate all that Juneteenth teaches us about our country's greatness in our use of the heart to hear and to learn and to work together for all that is good and just."

Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that marks a pivotal moment in American history. On June 19, 1865, over 250,000 enslaved people in Texas were finally freed, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. This day, also known as Freedom Day, is a reminder of the enduring struggle for justice and equality. As we celebrate, let us remember the significance of Juneteenth and its legacy of resilience and hope. Never forget the importance of this day and let us all continue to celebrate the progress that's been made. Read more: https://lnkd.in/g4EX_uUD

Green Schools Coordinator at Missouri Gateway Green Building Council with the Missouri Botanical Garden. LEED Green Associate and LEED Green Classroom Professional.
In honor of Black History Month, today's example of Black excellence in sustainability goes to an individual not in any of the fields officially related to sustainability. Henry Louis Gates is a Harvard professor interested in African American literature and cultural theory. But he serves as the historian and advisor to the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund, which is fighting to preserve Black churches across the country. Not only is this a sustainable way of working within existing buildings, but it also preserves cultural, historical, and spiritual centers of significance to the Black community and the entire American community. This is one of the reasons sustainable architecture and city planning is so important, both for our planet, and for our people. Learn more at the link below!
