John,

Today, on Juneteenth, we commemorate the emancipation of Black Americans and honor the strength, resilience, and enduring contributions of the generations who have fought to move our nation closer to its founding promise: equality for all.

Juneteenth is not only a celebration of freedom — it’s also a time of reflection. Together, we remember the courage and perseverance of the generations of activists, community leaders, and everyday citizens who stood up and demanded a more just America.

Yet, we know the work is far from over. The legacy of injustice persists, and the struggle for civil rights, equal opportunity, and democratic representation is ongoing.

We’re committed to honoring the legacy of those who came before us by continuing the fight. That means organizing our communities, advocating for systemic change, and working to elect leaders who will uphold the values of justice, equality, and liberty for all people.

Today, as we celebrate Juneteenth, let us reaffirm our responsibility to build a future where freedom and equality are fully realized for everyone.
