Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, is a holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. This is observed on June 19 annually. In celebration of Juneteenth, our Black Professionals Alliance (BPA) led a variety of in person and virtual events for employees. Additionally, our Black Professionals Alliance teamed up with our Farmers Pride Employee Resource Group to incorporate the colors of black and brown in the Pride Color Campaign, and invites everyone to wear those colors to recognize intersectionality and bring awareness to Juneteenth and what the day represents. ✊🏽 ✊🏾 ✊🏿 #WeAreFarmers #BlackProfessionalsAlliance #Juneteenth #LifeAtFarmers #DiscoverFarmers #FarmersInsurance #Junteenth2024 #RecognizeJuneteenth #JuneteenthCelebration #HappyJuneteenth #EmployeeResourceGroup #EmployeeResourceGroups #FreedomDay

Today, The BOW Collective broke barriers as we met with top officials to discuss policies for Black women-owned businesses. The 200+ BOW Collective is doing $1.4 BILLION in business, and we are ensuring equity and inclusion in federal contracting and business opportunities. For the first time in history, SBA data shows deep racial disparities in government spending to Black businesses. We believe that more spending will create more jobs. Advocacy equals access, and together, we raised our voices to make a difference. #BOWatWhiteHouse #BOWBreaksBarriers #AdvocacyEqualsAccess #BlackWomenInBusiness #EquityAndInclusion #WhiteHouseVisit #Sisterhood #WomenEmpowerment #BusinessPhilanthropy

Today we honor Juneteenth. It was on June 19, 1865, when the last Confederate community of enslaved Americans in Galveston, Texas, received word that they had been freed from bondage. By Honoring Juneteenth: 🔴 We learn about slavery and its enduring legacy, fostering empathy, awareness, and a commitment to combating racism and inequality. 🔴 We bring people together across racial and cultural lines, commemorating the struggles of the past while working towards a more inclusive and equitable future. 🔴 We honor ancestors, acknowledge past injustices, and heal from intergenerational trauma caused by slavery and systemic racism. Honoring Juneteenth each year helps us foster understanding, empathy, and solidarity across communities. Let’s take this time to reflect on the progress made toward racial equality while acknowledging the work that still needs to be done to achieve true justice and liberation for all. #honoring #juneteenth #combatingracism #candidlyspeaking #community #understanding
