Juneteenth, June 19 - also known as Emancipation Day, symbolizes the end of slavery and commemorates the reading of President Abraham Lincoln's General Order #3 on June 19th, 1865, which announced the freeing of slaves. It became an official national holiday in 2021 when President Biden signed the measure into law. On hand for the signing was 94-year-old Opal Lee, who advocated for the June 19 holiday most of her life.
'You must never, ever give out. We must keep the faith because we are one people. We are brothers and sisters. We all live in the same house: the American house." - John Lewis, American congressman, civil rights activist
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, today I honor the sacred right of freedom for all people. I bring light to my community and the world by illuminating my own consciousness, healing any trace of prejudice that has kept me small. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
