This Labor Day, The Ezekiel Project honors the working people and unions whose courage and collective action helped secure fair wages, safer workplaces and dignity on the job.

When workers stand together, families and communities grow stronger. Today, we celebrate their labor, sacrifice and continued fight for a future in which every worker can thrive.

Happy Labor Day from The Ezekiel Project.

The strength of the Great Lakes Bay Region has always been its people. When we participate, we honor those who fought for the right to vote, invest in the future of our children, and remind one another that our voices have power.

Today, let’s show what community looks like. Vote, encourage others to vote, and help shape the future we all share.

Before Memorial Day, there was Decoration Day.

Many Americans were never taught that one of the earliest known Memorial Day observances was led by formerly enslaved Black Americans in Charleston in 1865.

After the Civil War, Black residents discovered Union soldiers buried in a mass grave at a former Confederate prison camp. They carefully reburied the soldiers, decorated the graves with flowers, and gathered in remembrance with songs, prayers, and honor.

Long before Memorial Day became a national tradition, Black Americans were already showing the country what it meant to decorate the graves of the fallen with dignity, gratitude, and love.

Today, we honor all who gave their lives in service to this country.

May we never forget the sacrifices made, or the people who made sure those sacrifices were remembered.

There are no words for the loss we are feeling as an entire community. Nyesha LaToy was more than a board member for Ezekiel, she was a sounding board, an encourager and a unwavering voice in the community. Our hearts and prayers are with her family. She is and will forever remain family and we thank her for her service to our organization and our community. Job well done.

Harry Browne was a trailblazer in Saginaw’s labor and civic life. While working for Chevrolet Grey Iron, he became the first Black president of UAW Local 688 in 1948 — a historic milestone in local labor leadership.

He later served on the Saginaw County Board of Supervisors, chaired the United Way, and owned Browne’s Mortuary, dedicating his life to service and community leadership.
