HAPPY JUNETEENTH Freedom Day🙏🏾 Juneteenth Is Now A Federal Holiday ✨Challenges and Responsibilities "Every year we must remind successive generations that this event triggered a series of events that one by one defines the challenges and responsibilities of successive generations. That's why we need this holiday." - Al Edwards #juneteenth #juneteenth2021 #juneteeth #juneteenthholiday #egyptlawson #explore https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTbEm4DCLb/?utm_medium=tumblr

#juneteenth would mean more if the Black community was respected monetarily. They on a mission to rewrite history and take away voting rights and further disenfranchise people who built this country for FREE!! Then when allegedly freed jailed by Jim Crow Redlining and denied home loans..even veterans couldn't get generational wealth not even GI Bills were given! DENIED GENERATIONAL WEALTH. DENIED HUMANITY JUST LIVING OUR LIVES. SONS AND DAUGHTERS KILLED. KNEE ON OUR NECKS....and a #juneteenthholiday is supposed to make a difference??? For those that still don't get it read #acaseforreparations which breaks it all down #blackwallstreet in #tulsa was NOT THE ONLY time Black Wealth was destroyed. And it's still happening... Don't wish Black People a Happy Juneteenth until you can tell us just WHAT are we celebrating??? When are the chains ⛓ going to come off??? #sickandtiredofbeingsickandtired !!!!!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CQQz7VmpJqE/?utm_medium=tumblr
