On June 19, 1865 news spread that slavery had ended when General Gordon Granger reached Galveston, Texas. This was two and half years after Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Freedom! That's what our ancestors felt. That's what they believed in. That's what they saw in us, for generations to come. They never stopped fighting for it. They never stopped pushing for it. On this day, we owe it to our ancestors to continue to deliver the message of liberation and fight for equality, liberty and justice for all.

VIBE said it right “Now, that’s what we call self-made!”
