   Juneteenth is a celebration of liberation as we remember the African Americans who were freed by Union troops across Texas on this day in 1865.

   If you want to learn more, particularly if you’re outside the US, we’ve found that the National Museum of African American History & Culture has a great resource here: https://nmaahc.si.edu/juneteenth

   We also encourage you to check out our Black Voices Community to learn about the struggles people of colour face in the modern day.
