On Juneteenth, we celebrate our freedom, our resilience, and our progress. Today we're honoring all the Black folks who came before us – who helped build our country with their bare hands – who marched and fought to do everything they could to build a better future for us all. This Juneteenth, let's pledge to keep using our voices and our votes to create the change we want to see in our country.
