Master of a Few - Seg. 83 - Juneteenth & Final Poems

Today, June 19th, is Juneteenth or the day we celebrate the liberation of the enslaved. On this day in 1865, the last of enslaved were informed of emancipation. Take this day to educate yourself and learn the history of enslavement and oppression in The United States. Fittingly, this is also the last segment in my series reading "We Have Never Asked Permission to Sing," a chapbook of poetry written by Black and Brown Trans people. I hope you enjoy it and you can download the book for yourself at: https://forwardtogether.org/art/we-have-never-asked-permission-to-sing/

Take this day (and everyday) to educate yourself about systemic racism and how to be actively anti-racist.
