Juneteenth reminds us that progress, however arduous, is possible. It compels us to actively participate in dismantling systemic barriers and advocating for true equity. Let's honor the past, celebrate the present, and work together for a brighter future. #Juneteenth #BlackLivesMatter #bridgelineExteriors #Juneteenth19th #equality #Diversityandinclusion #BridgelineUnites

Juneteenth is a day to recognize the profound significance of June 19, 1865, the day when enslaved people in Texas learned of their emancipation. But it is also so much more. You will often hear that this is the day that marks the true end of slavery in the U.S. Yet, we know that racial minorities continue to face systemic violence that extends the legacy of slavery into the modern era, often with little material difference. Thus, Juneteenth is a day to not just celebrate freedom, but to rededicate ourselves to racial equality. It is day to declare that the arc of history still bends toward justice, even–perhaps especially–when justice is too long deferred. #juneteenth #racialjustice #antiracism #endracism #equality
