🌟 Celebrating Juneteenth: Honoring Freedom and Empowerment 🌟 Today, we join the nation in celebrating Juneteenth, a day of profound historical significance commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that the Civil War had ended and that enslaved African Americans were now free—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued. Juneteenth serves as a powerful reminder of the progress we have made toward equality and justice, as well as a call to action to continue the fight against systemic racism and oppression. At Urban Infraconstruction, we are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where every individual feels valued and empowered to succeed. As we celebrate Juneteenth, let us reflect on our shared history, amplify Black voices, and work together to create a future where freedom and equality are enjoyed by all. #Juneteenth #Freedom #Equality #DiversityandInclusion #Empowerment

On June 19, 1865, Union troops announced the end of slavery in Texas, marking the final liberation of enslaved African Americans in the USA. Today, we commemorate the end of slavery and celebrate the resilience of Black communities, reflecting on their enduring spirit in the face of oppression and their invaluable contributions to shaping our nation's history. Young American actress and activist Yara Shahidi reminds us, "Instead of inheriting a broken system, we have the power to change it.” As we honor this struggle for liberation and continue the fight against injustice, Shahidi's words resonate deeply, urging us to recognize our responsibility in reshaping the structures perpetuating inequality. At EPI, we believe in universal respect for mankind, and on Juneteenth we recommit ourselves to the ongoing pursuit of equality and justice for all, amplifying marginalized voices and fostering inclusive communities where everyone can thrive regardless of race, gender, or background.

Today the United States celebrates Juneteenth. This 159-year observance recognizes the announcement by Union troops in the western most Confederate state of Texas that enslaved Black people in this territory were free by executive decree. While Juneteenth celebrations come together in recognition of what’s known as America’s second Independence Day, we want to highlight the importance of community. Without strong interpersonal relationships, fostered connection, and teamwork, we cannot achieve the crucial work that needs to be done to achieve racial equity, justice, and well-being. ETR is closed today for this observance, but when we get back to work, we will continue to fight for our vision—a world where all individuals and communities achieve their best health. On this day, take some time to learn more about Juneteenth from the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture.
