What an inspiring message today from our Founder Jeremy Gray at the Lee County Remembrance Project Juneteenth Breakfast!

Their theme was "Carry Memory Forward" A point in his speech that emphasizes the theme was we've become people who easily and readily point out differences instead of building bridges!

Creating bridges births the opportunity for ALL of us to move forward but we must understand the COMPLETE truth on those differences that sometimes block us from doing so!

Happy Juneteenth to all as it is a time to celebrate how far WE'VE come whether you created a bridge or not!

Job well done Rep. Jeremy Gray
