::: "Juneteenth: A Celebration of\xa0 the Emancipation of the Slaves"\xa0:::\n\nAn OUR COMMON GROUND #HISTORYMATTERS SPECIAL\n\nWe provide a history of the event and the celebration of Juneteenth as we celebrate its first year as a national holiday.\n\nJuneteenth is specifically a celebration of Black emancipation. Race-based chattel slavery intentionally ensnared people of African descent and labeled them as property. Juneteenth was made possible because of the courage and resilience of Black people who persistently fought for their liberation.\xa0 American Black freedom struggle is the\xa0central place in Juneteenth celebrations.\n\nReturning LIVE 6/26/21\xa0 "REPARATIONS: The Debt That Is Owed"\xa0\n\nListen & Call-In Line: 347-838-9852\n\n"Transforming Truth to Power, One Broadcast At a Time"\n\nTo support\xa0OUR COMMON GROUND visit our website.\xa0\n\nFollow us on FB\xa0and Twitter #JaniceOCG\n\nJoin\xa0 our Exchange Community
