In collaboration with researchers from the University of Alabama, Lindamood-Bell has co-authored a…

As we celebrate Juneteenth, we take time to recognize an important moment in American history. Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, when the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, learned of their freedom—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued.

This day serves as both a celebration of freedom and a reminder of the ongoing pursuit of equality, justice, and opportunity for all. It invites us to reflect on our nation`s history, acknowledge the resilience and contributions of Black Americans, and recommit ourselves to fostering understanding, inclusion, and respect within our communities.

We remember and honor all those who suffered from the tragedy of slavery.
