Happy Juneteenth! Juneteenth commemorates the freedom of the last enslaved Blacks in America when Union soldiers arrived at Galveston, Texas two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation with news that the Civil War was over and the enslaved were now free. In addition to celebration, let this be a day of reflection for LSU and our country as we work toward true equality and freedom for all.
