Today, we gathered in the courtyard of Des Moines City Hall to raise the Juneteenth flag in recognition of a day that marks freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equality.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this meaningful ceremony as we reflected on our nation's history and honored the significance of Juneteenth. We are especially grateful to those who helped make today's event possible and to everyone who took a moment to celebrate with us.

As the Juneteenth flag flies over City Hall, it serves as a reminder of the importance of remembering our past, celebrating progress, and continuing to build a community where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and respected.
