The ºìÌÒÊÓÆµDiversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee proudly commemorates Juneteenth as a celebration of freedom, resilience, and the continued pursuit of justice and equality. We recognize the lasting contributions of African American workers whose strength, sacrifice, and leadership helped shape both the labor movement and the foundation of ºìÌÒÊÓÆµitself. Their fight for fairness, opportunity, and respect in the workplace continues to inspire us today.
As ºìÌÒÊÓÆµmembers, we understand that solidarity is more than a word, it is standing together on every call, in every venue, and through every challenge. Juneteenth reminds us that progress is made when working people lift each other up and ensure every member has the opportunity to succeed, be heard, and be treated with dignity and respect.
This Juneteenth, we honor the struggles of those who came before us, celebrate how far we have come, and recommit ourselves to building a stronger, more united ºìÌÒÊÓÆµfor future generations.
In solidarity,
ºìÌÒÊÓÆµDiversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee
