Happy Juneteenth, John!
The United States was built on the labor of enslaved Black Americans. It wouldn't be until June 19, 1865, when the final Black men and women were freed in the Confederate states.
The end of our nation’s original sin is a cause for great celebration and pride, and its anniversary offers us an important opportunity to reflect on the meaning of equality in the United States.
We should not be shy about admitting the challenges Black Americans still face in this country, nor should we be timid about confronting them. We cannot stop working to make our country fairer and more just for all of its citizens, nor can we stop fighting to expand access to the opportunities every American deserves.
This Juneteenth, let's recommit ourselves to continue taking action against racial injustice and fighting for what our country should be: a place where we are all truly equal.
Thank you,
Chris Coons
