Delray Beach JUNETEENTH

Juneteenth marks the emancipation of those who were enslaved in the United States. It is about learning new ways to promote economic empowerment in the Black community and sharing ideas to address racial disparities.

It is not only a time for commemorating the end of slavery and honoring Black history and its rich heritage, but it is also a call to recognize the many accomplishments and notable contributions to our society by African Americans.
