This Juneteenth, Use Imagination as a Practice of Emancipation

Each year on June 19, we commemorate Juneteenth, the day in 1865 when Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced the end of slavery. Their announcement was directed to people who had remained enslaved more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued.
This is a story of freedom delayed but not denied. It is a story of liberation, persistence and the enduring determination of people who refused to accept bondage as their permanent condition. It is a reminder that we need not embrace that which has been offered as permanent if our spirit yearns—indeed demands—something more.
