From The History Channel: Juneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”) marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth honors the end to slavery in the United States and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. On June 17, 2021, it officially became a federal holiday.

Absolutely agree with your perspective. How do you find the best approaches for fostering these courageous conversations? Looking forward to learning more about your strategies on creating an inclusive environment.
