Our staff will take the time to learn more about the history of the day, participate in community events, and reflect on the many ways that the fight for racial justice intersects with our work (such as the lasting impacts of <a href=\"https:\/\/empowermissouri.org\/es\/redlining\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">racist housing policy<\/a>, legislation around <a href=\"https:\/\/empowermissouri.org\/es\/dei-and-poverty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DEI initiatives<\/a>, or proposals for <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/XxCehyJs-B8?si=kpjRdnsSNMYymCTs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reparations to the Black community<\/a>, to name only a few of many examples). As an anti-poverty organization, we know that nearly every issue we advocate for has a disproportionate impact on our Black community members. We are committed to pursuing racial equity in all of our work, and while today is a celebration of the progress that has been made, it is also a perfect time to reflect on the ongoing struggle for racial justice, and how we can be active allies by listening, learning, and amplifying Black voices. To that end, we are using this Weekly Perspective to uplift the numerous partners and community organizations celebrating Juneteenth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to Learn More About Juneteenth<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nmaahc.si.edu\/juneteenth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The National Museum of African American History &amp; Culture<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/juneteenth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many communities have already begun celebrating by hosting events and gatherings throughout the month of June, but there are still ways to get involved tomorrow or later this month:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Juneteenth Events Throughout Missouri<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Springfield<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/s\/6th-annual-juneteenth-freedomf\/2110321836014198\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth Freedomfest Musical Festival<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 19th, 12 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/3332508393710528\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth Multicultural Freedom Unity Celebration<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 22nd, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>San Louis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archcitydefenders.org\/event\/freedom-summer-stl-juneteenth-kickoff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Freedom Summer STL Juneteenth Kick-Off<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 19th, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mohistory.org\/events\/summer-family-fun-series-4-06-19-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Missouri Historical Society Juneteenth Jubilee<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 19th, 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. (and other events throughout the month)<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegriotmuseum.com\/events\/3rd-annual-juneteenth-free-dome-celebration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">3rd Annual Juneteenth \u2018FREE-DOME\u2019 Celebration<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 19th, 1 to 7:00 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/4th-annual-juneteenth-celebration-with-old-north-stl-tickets-867556233047\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">4th Annual Juneteenth Celebration with Old North STL<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 22nd, 12 to 6 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gatewayfestivalorchestra.org\/calendar-events\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A Celebration of Black Composers<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 20th, 7:30 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Columbia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitcolumbiamo.com\/juneteenth\/2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth in Columbia<\/a> &#8211; <em>Multiple events listed through June 20th<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/theloopcomo.com\/events\/juneteenth-family-fun-fest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth Family Fun Fest<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 20th, 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kansas City<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nelson-atkins.org\/festivals\/juneteenth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nelson-Atkins Juneteenth Celebration<\/a> &#8211;<em> June 20th, 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Independence<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.juneteenthindependence.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth Celebration<\/a> &#8211; <em>June 19th, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fayettetogether.net\/juneteenth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juneteenth: Honoring History; Embracing Progress<\/a> &#8211; <em>Multiple events from June 19th-23rd<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you attend an event or do some reading on your own, we hope you&#8217;ll spend some time tomorrow reflecting on the meaning of the day, the progress that&#8217;s been made, and the work that still needs to be done.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juneteenth, or Freedom Day, commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans on June 19, 1865.
