Happy Juneteenth from TASC! 🇬🇭

One hundred and sixty-one years ago today, Major General Gordan Granger and the Union Army arrived in Galveston, Texas – a remote region where the Emancipation Proclamation, signed over two years prior, had not yet been enforced – and freed 250,000 enslaved individuals, effectively bringing an end to slavery in the U.S. once and for all.

Today, we celebrate the liberation of the African American community from the chains of slavery. We honor their strength and resilience, and allow their unrelenting fight for justice and equality to inspire us in our own pursuit of inclusivity.
