Juneteenth, an Election Year and America 250

Tomorrow is Juneteeth. The day that the nation celebrates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans from bondage. This commemoration also coincides with a critical election season and the 250th birthday of the United States. The irony of this should not be lost on anyone. We’re examining these issues as they continue to impact Black people across the country.

Guests:

Glenn Harris – President of Race Forward

Tamika Mallory – Civil Rights and Social Justice Activist

Steve Williams – President, National Juneteenth Observance Foundation
