Juneteenth, A Freedom Celebration June 7-9, 2024
Special Thanks to:
Juneteenth, A Freedom Celebration is Virginia’s flagship Juneteenth holiday commemoration. First presented in 1996, it is reflective of Richmond and Virginia’s particular and poignant stories of enslavement and emancipation, and it highlights the resolve and resilience of Africa’s children in America.
Richmond is ground zero with regards to the country’s evolution in its racial mores, disparities and hierarchies. Juneteenth, A Freedom Celebration will be a vital part of our community’s reset and healing.
Stay tuned for details about performances, healing cyphers, the Get Woke Youth Summit, the Freedom Market, historical perspective and ancestral homage at Shockoe Bottom’s African Burial Ground.
The elders say, “We have to go out the way we came in.” The pathway is being established.
Stay tuned for details.
