Happy Juneteenth! If you’re thinking, “Juneteenth, what’s that?”—allow me to fill you in. Juneteenth is a moment in US history where more Americans in this country attained their right to the promise of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” It was the day that enslaved people finally received the message (two years after the Emancipation Proclamation) that they were free. A messenger, from a foreign land, came to spread a message that for everyone enslaved, was the best news they’d ever heard. Sound familiar? In this episode of the Unsilent Church, we’re talking not only about the facts of Juneteenth, but why we all as Americans and even more as Christians, should celebrate one of the best gospel pictures we have in a holiday we’ve too long overlooked in our own country’s history. Juneteenth was good news, and for that, we celebrate! Enjoy.
