Why does Juneteenth mark the start of freedom for everybody?
February is Black History Month and to celebrate we are joined by the remarkable trailblazer Ms. Opal Lee, often referred to as “The Grandmother of Juneteenth”. Ms. Opal is the oldest living board member of the National Juneteenth Observance Foundation and was present when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act bill that established June 19 or “Juneteenth” as a federal holiday. At 90 years of age, she started a walking campaign from Fort Worth, TX to Washington, DC to bring awareness to the need for celebrating Juneteenth nationally. Ms. Opal was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of her work to bring awareness to the contributions and struggles of African Americans in the United States, as well as her mission to create a more equitable society for humanity. Join us to hear her incredible story, what the pen President Biden used to sign the bill means to her, and what she hopes the next generation will take on next.
