** Celebrate Juneteenth!
------------------------------------------------------------

The holiday on June 19th is also called “Juneteenth Independence Day,” “Freedom Day” or “Emancipation Day”

Juneteenth was proclaimed a federal holiday in 2021. What is Juneteenth? Juneteenth (combined from June and 19th) is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration marking the end of legal slavery in the United States.

On June 19th, 1865, union soldiers led by Major General Gordon Granger landed in Galveston, Texas with news that the Civil War had ended and enslaved persons were now free. General G
ranger’s announcement put into effect the Emancipation Proclamation, which had been issued more than two years earlier by President Abraham Lincoln, on Jan. 1, 1863.
Celebrate the 158th anniversary of Juneteenth and highlight the ongoing fight for equality in the Black community at local events ([link removed]) . I enjoyed the Juneteenth festival and parade on Saturday.

There is still much to d o to achieve true equality of opportunity for all.

I very much want to continue the work I have started as your At-Large City Council member. I humbly ask for your vote in the upcoming primary election.
Thank you!

Sincerely,
Dimple Ajmera
Charlotte City Council At-Large
