Faith,
Today is Juneteenth — a day of celebration that commemorates the end of the United States' historic practice of slavery. It's a day to honor the freedom of all people living in the United States.
Only two years ago, a bill to establish Juneteenth as a national holiday unanimously passed the Senate + was signed into law by President Biden. It was a long overdue step to acknowledge the long shadow of systemic racism casts over America.
But the truth is that we still have a painfully long way to go.
We can never stop fighting to guarantee true freedom, equality, and liberation for Black folks — in PA + across our nation. As we celebrate today, we must recommit to the work.
Thank you, and sending lots of love to yinz + yours today,
All of us at Fetterman HQ
