.Lavernecox, todrick, Ludacris and more stars tell us what Juneteenth means to them.
“When I think of the moment all slaves were finally 'freed' from slavery, I think of the most prosperous black city that ever was, Greenwood Ohklahoma, Black Wallstreet. A city, in 1921, that was bombed and burned to the ground by white men. A city where innocent, unarmed black men, women, and children were murdered in the streets.
We, the people, look to LAWS to determine and uphold the rules of society and the laws then, like now, do not tell of freedom for black people. Celebrating Juneteenth, the 'ending of slavery,' could be likened to celebrating the Minneapolis PD for only kneeling on one neck. I say, Juneteenth can no longer just be black people celebrating the knee removed from our necks, it needs to be a proclamation, a demand for what is owed, just and for what is equal, a declaration from ALL AMERICANS.
