On #Juneteenth, we honor, commemorate and acknowledge formerly enslaved people, their stories, the resilience of Black communities and ongoing movement toward racial equity.Thanks to a unanimous and historical vote by the #WakeCounty Board of Commissioners in 2021, #Wake was the first county in #NorthCarolina to declare Juneteenth a holiday for its employees. We are proud to recognize Juneteenth as the important holiday that it is. ➡️ Do you know the story of Juneteenth?
