Are you curious about what people in our WMS community will be celebrating tomorrow? Tomorrow is the celebration of Juneteenth. Juneteenth is a celebration of the end of legal slavery in the U.S. It is now a state and federal holiday in the United States.  Juneteenth recognizes the day one of the last communities holding on to enslaved people of African descent in the United States received word that they had been “freed”. In many cities, people participate by holding parades, dances, races, and having barbecues, while educating participants about the history and legacy of slavery and emancipation in the U.S. We wish all people at WMS celebrating this holiday β€œHappy Juneteenth.”
