Acting Chief Michael Brunson’s swearing in and his vision for the Milwaukee Police Department moving forward.
155 years ago, the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas learned they were free according to General Order No. 3 on June 19th, 1865. Juneteenth marks the celebration of the last slaves being freed, two years after the initial proclamation of the end of slavery.
Today in Milwaukee, the Juneteenth celebration began with the raising of the official Juneteenth flag at the Zeidler Municipal Building. We hope you safely take part in the festivities around the city today.
