As we observe Memorial Day, we are reminded of the profound sacrifices made by countless men and women in uniform who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedoms. This day is not just a long weekend; it is a solemn tribute to the valor and dedication of our servicemembers who have paid the ultimate price for the values we hold dear. Their courage and commitment are at the heart of what many refer to as American Exceptionalism. This notion encompasses the idea that the United States, founded on principles of liberty, democracy, and equality, holds a unique place in history. It suggests that our country has a distinct role in advancing freedom and justice around the world. American Exceptionalism is not merely a boastful claim; it is a call to action. It compels us to uphold the ideals that our fallen heroes fought for, ensuring that their legacy lives on through our actions and policies. It challenges us to strive for excellence, to innovate, and to lead with integrity and compassion on the global stage. As we enjoy the freedoms and opportunities provided by living in this exceptional nation, let’s take a moment to honor those who made it possible. May we remember that the bedrock of our exceptionalism is built upon the sacrifices of those who served. #memorialday #armedforces #investing #insurance

Professionally: CEO, CDA, Author and Public Speaker; Personally: Husband to an amazing wife, father of two of the best children on the planet, sibling to several and brother to everyone.
I’d also like to to thank all of the brave people who gave their lives to obtain and keep our independence for the last 248 years. Original Declaration (link below to read all of it): WHEN in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness—-That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great-Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyrants only.

What do people NOT know about #Juneteenth? President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was signed on Jan 1, 1863 as a military strategy. The Proclamation proclaimed it legal for Black men to serve in the federal military, making all the difference in the Civil War. Black men had organized and trained themselves to fight from the very start, but they were turned away until the Union was desperate enough to enlist them and to free the slaves in rebel states. Black women also played a critical role as volunteers, scouts, and spies. The 29th Colored Infantry Regiment defeated General Robert E. Lee at Appomattox in April 1865 and ended the Confederacy. But we never learn about the 29th Colored Regiment, nor do we talk about Black contributions to winning the Civil War and saving the Union. After much resistance, two and a half years after Lincoln's Proclamation, Union soldiers finally arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced the end of slavery on June 19, 1865. Slavery was abolished, officially, via the ratification of the 13th Amendment in December 1865. Juneteenth represents not only the belated freedom for enslaved people in Texas but also symbolizes the broader struggle for emancipation and equality for all African Americans. It serves as a reminder that the deep-rooted injustices of slavery and the lingering legacy of #systemicracism and oppression still exist. Juneteenth is also symbolic of resiliency, perseverance, strength, triumph, and belief in the human spirit. Across the nation, African American communities honor their ancestors' unique fight for freedom, ❤️celebrate their rich cultural heritage and achievements, while enabling all Americans to reflect on this shared history and the path toward racial justice and equality❤️ Juneteenth became the nation's 12th legal federal holiday in 2021. Thank you Kimberly Sanders and Stantec's BLK ERG for sharing resources and insight to help us better understand and celebrate this important event. #BetterTogether

As president of Chariots of Honor, we are committed to honoring our military veterans, and as an ITIL Expert, I am passionate about helping organizations improve their service delivery and operations.
Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, honoring the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the U.S. Originating in 1865 in Galveston, Texas, this day commemorates the end of slavery, two and a half years post the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is a vital occasion recognizing African American soldiers' contributions to the Union's fight for freedom and the subsequent abolition of slavery. It's a time to honor their service and the ongoing quest for equality within the military and society. The significance of Juneteenth lies in the events leading up to the end of slavery, including the Emancipation Proclamation, the Civil War's conclusion, and the passage of the 13th Amendment. The Reconstruction Amendments, post-Civil War, further solidified these liberties: the 13th Amendment abolished slavery, the 14th granted citizenship and protection, while the 15th provided voting rights. #Juneteenth #ChariotsOfHonor
