Today is Juneteenth.
A day that many have heard very little about.
I believe today is the first day that I have devoted
any time to understanding the importance of this day.
Tonight I watched a program on TV called Juneteenth: A Celebration of Overcoming.
It was such a good program with summaries of several key events
in the history of our country
and our black communities.
I'm hoping that this window of awareness lasts,
I see many comments on social media expressing lack of awareness of the significance of Juneteenth.
But this year, there is more awareness and learning.
The best thing I did today was watch this YouTube video.
It was amazing, touching, sad, happy, and inspirational.
