Embracing the Spirit of Freedom: Happy Juneteenth! Today, our offices will be closed. We commemorate Juneteenth, a day of profound significance in American history. Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, marks the momentous occasion when the last enslaved African Americans in the United States learned of their freedom on June 19, 1865, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. This day symbolizes resilience, liberation, and the enduring pursuit of justice. It serves as a powerful reminder of the progress we've made and the work still ahead in advancing equality, diversity, and inclusion in our communities and workplaces. At Melinta Therapeutics, we recognize the importance of diversity and celebrate the richness of perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds that make us stronger as a team.

3wI love my country! In the early 1700s New England Colonists voted to ban the slave trade through their ports. The British Crown rejected their petition. Slavery was profitable for Merry 'Ole England. From the day of our independence (Evacuation Day, November 25, 1783), when the last British ship sailed from New York Harbor, one locality after another banned slavery until a mere 20 or so years after independence, slavery was virtually banned, save about 1/3 of states. US President Thomas Jefferson used our new navy to defeat the Barbary Pirates, who routinely raided & stole Europeans (mostly women) for the North African slave trade... a million that we know of. We ended the N. African slave trade from "The Shores Of Tripoli." The Confederacy attempted to make off with 11 states and the UK was willing to receive diplomats from them with open arms. And to sell them arms: the CSS Alabama, for which England paid a $15.5 million fine to the USA (adjudicated years later in a Swiss court). And, of course, finally we lost 600,000 men in the Civil War that resulted in actual emancipation. A man could be born a slave at our independence and be free (83 yrs) by the end of it. God Bless The USA!
