John,Today is a day of tremendous significance and celebration in African American history. We honor the emancipation of enslaved individuals and reflect on the progress we've made – and the work that still lies ahead.
Juneteenth commemorates June 19th, 1865, when freedom was proclaimed for enslaved people in Texas two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
Let us embrace Juneteenth as a time of remembrance, reflection, and rededication to the pursuit of freedom and equality for all. Together, we will continue to break barriers, overcome challenges, and build a brighter future for Louisiana.
May this Juneteenth be filled with joy, unity, and a renewed commitment to the values that make our nation great. As I continue my campaign to be Louisiana's first African American governor, I am honored to have you by my side on this remarkable journey.
Thank you,
Shawn Wilson
