Take African-America Public Launch
I“Juneteenth” which is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States when the Union soldiers landed at Galveston, Texas with the news that the war had ended and the enslaved were now free has transformed into a day, a week, and in some areas a month marked with celebrations, guest speakers, picnics and family gatherings. It has become a time for celebration, reflection, rejoicing, assessment, self-improvement and planning for the future.
On June 19, 2019 we would like to take it to the struggle to the next-level and truly embark on steps to become emancipated by launching the “Take African-American Public” Campaign – a 12-24 month fundraising and investment campaign to create an endowment of $500m toward re-developing African-American communities across the United States.
