How we Juneteenth"The Times has put together a collection of historical photos, poetry and articles about the holiday, which commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S."
“As someone who has celebrated Juneteenth for a long time, I think we need it now — not in lieu of the freedom, justice and equality we are still fighting for — but in addition, because we have been fighting for so very long,” Veronica Chambers, an editor who spearheaded the project, writes."
