Juneteenth is a pivotal day in American history, marking when enslaved people in Texas learned of their freedom and celebrating Black Americans' resiliency nationwide. Today, we use the day to affirm our commitment to racial justice. We cannot forget our past nor lose sight of our fight for continued progress.

🖤Join us in celebrating Black History Month at the office! 🖤 Let's honor and recognize the countless contributions made by Black Americans throughout history. The history and experiences of Black people are an integral part of America's heritage and have shaped both our past and present. The criminal justice system has long been intertwined with the oppression of black people, from slavery to the mass incarceration we see today. As public defenders, we recognize the responsibility we hold in fighting for justice and equality for all. Black Americans face disparate treatment at every stage of the criminal process, from traffic stops to sentencing. We must remember that the U.S. Constitution, when written, excluded people of color, and racial discrimination was enforced by the courts. It is crucial for public defenders to understand this history of struggle to effectively advocate against injustice. Throughout history, people of all backgrounds have joined together to fight against injustice, and we must continue this legacy. Black history matters every day, not just in February. Together, we can work towards a more just and equal society.

Thanks to the work of African American authors, the world can better understand both the struggles and triumphs of Black people in America.

It's been an incredible journey through #BlackHistoryMonth 2024🖤✊🏿. As we wrap up this series of daily posts, let’s remember that Black History is NOT a separate entity from American History; rather, it is an integral and inseparable part of the nation's narrative. The contributions, struggles, and achievements of Black people have played a significant role in shaping the nation's identity AND… progress. Acknowledging Black History every day of the year is essential because it recognizes the ongoing impact of Black Americans on all aspects of society, including culture, business, politics, science, and the arts. Embracing this perspective fosters a more inclusive and accurate understanding of the nation's past, present, and future. By incorporating Black history into the broader narrative, we promote unity, diversity, and a collective appreciation for the resilience and triumphs of the Black community. Let’s continue to commemorate the stories, achievements, and legacies of remarkable individuals who have shaped our world. #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackHistory365 #CelebrateExcellence To view the daily posts visit IG @showupllc.
