We kicked off our Juneteenth celebration with the Juneteenth Atlanta Parade & Music Festival last weekend—the event that has served as Atlanta’s official Juneteenth celebration since it was first recognized as a city holiday. Now in its 5th year as an official city observance, Juneteenth is a time to honor the journey toward freedom and reflect on the work still ahead. Today, on Juneteenth, we continue that reflection—celebrating progress while staying committed to equity, inclusion, and justice
