Hi Danielle, Join us over on our Instagram (@actblueorg) today around 1 p.m. ET help us recognize Juneteenth with Black Feminist Future! Join us → What is Juneteenth? Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery and celebrates African-American heritage and culture. On Juneteenth, short for June 19, federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas to spread the word about the Emancipation Proclamation and ensure all enslaved people be freed. The troops arrived in 1865 — two and a half years after the signing of the proclamation. Since that time, Juneteenth’s significance is maintained and highlighted by family gatherings and community events. What does Black Feminist Future do? BFF is a member organization that centers leadership development, community care, and joy to build the political and social power needed to win concrete changes. They nourish the leadership of fierce Black feminists, fortify aligned organizations and movements, and shift cultural norms. How can I learn more? Visit our Instagram page today to hear BFF discuss their work! You can also head over to their website to learn more or follow them on social media.
