Notes regarding time
Virtual Livestream also available.Description
Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the end of slavery. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19 that the Union soldiers landed in Galveston, TX with the news that the Civil war had ended and all enslaved people were free. This was a full 2 years after the Emancipation Proclamation made slavery illegal.
Since that time, African American communities have proclaimed Juneteenth as their Independence Day. Our guest preacher will be Rev. Chris Burton, the sole proprietor of an anti-racism consulting agency for churches and schools called Di Baddest Consulting.
