Happy Juneteenth!

Thank you Lansing Area Track club and Run Tha City 517 for hosting the 4th Annual Juneteenth 5k! And thank you to those who ran as part of the Justice League Team.

Juneteenth is a celebration of resilience and the enduring strength of Black communities. Wellness is an act of self-preservation and empowerment-creating space for rest, movement, and joy! Thank you for moving with us and celebrating freedom.

In this month’s newsletter we highlight our educational presentations. Our educational presentations are foundational to helping our community understand the need for reparations. Over the years, countless community organizations, houses of worship, and academic classrooms have invited us to deliver presentations on what we do.

Our presentations take participants through a timeline from America’s original sin, slavery, to discriminatory, racist practices like redlining to demonstrate the creation of the racial wealth gap.

The history lesson we never received.

Local and national news organizations play a vital role in documenting the ongoing movement for reparations and preserving the stories behind the work. Coverage helps educate communities, amplify local voices, and ensure that conversations around justice, equity, and accountability remain visible and informed.

Our timeline documents the local and national news organizations that broke the story of our work and that continue to share our story. They have helped us build community awareness, advocate for meaningful change, and create spaces for dialogue, healing, and action.
