Danny Davis: “Beginning tomorrow there will be thousands and thousands of events…”

On the recordJune 15, 2023

Beginning tomorrow there will be thousands and thousands of events, commemorations, and activities all over America celebrating Juneteenth, which will be June 19. There will be many of those in the district that I represent, at Malcolm X College and also at the JLM Center. I look forward to participating with many of my constituents as we remember and recall but project the future, and that is what Juneteenth means. We look back to go forward. Happy Juneteenth to all of the constituents in my district and throughout America. ____________________
