Ways to Observe Juneteenth
| Juneteenth, a federal holiday observed on June 19, commemorates the emancipation of enslaved Black people in the U.S. But more than 150 years after the first Juneteenth in 1865, inequity persists. The holiday offers an opportunity for people of faith to reflect on history and recommit to resisting evil, injustice and oppression. United Methodist Communications and the Commission on Religion and Race offer downloadable resources to help churchgoers observe Juneteenth. |
