Happy #Juneteenth! Two UNT alumni play strong roles in the holiday.
The tireless activism of Opal Lee, a @untcoe alum, led to the holiday’s establishment. Jarred Howard, a @UNTRyanBusiness alum, heads the @juneteenthmsm, expected to open in 2025.

And to freedom for all. Love and Unity
Thank you.
Juneteenth is meant to breathe new life into the very essence of America—to make sure all Americans feel the power of this day and the progress we can make as a country. To choose love over hate, unity over disunion, and progress over retreat.
