‘A holiday of paradoxes:’ Juneteenth sparks joy and reflections for Bay Area residents

Last weekend, we celebrated the now NATIONAL HOLIDAY of Juneteenth, which began as a celebration of the last enslaved people being informed that slavery was over (2 years later). We still have far to go, but let's recognize every step - and continue to push forward. toward racial equity. https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/06/19/a-holiday-of-paradoxes-juneteenth-sparks-joy-and-reflections-for-bay-area-residents/?fbclid=IwAR0X9cTGrnPunv5f82TW_AZWHftPdLQSn6q2pIQYc6nqzQQBRoRB6gte6Lo #racialequity #oakland #RichmondCA #vallejo

The holiday day caps a year of immense grief and determination following George Floyd’s murder and a subsequent public grappling with systemic racism.
