Today at Miss our air base , we did

00:03.089 --> 00:05.256
have a Juneteenth five K and it turned

00:05.256 --> 00:07.478
out pretty good . Most people might not

00:07.478 --> 00:09.478
know Juneteenth is very , it's very

00:09.478 --> 00:11.311
much significant day for African

00:11.311 --> 00:13.670
Americans , mostly people of colors .

00:13.680 --> 00:16.469
Um as today is the day that marks the

00:16.479 --> 00:18.590
end of slavery when you buy to run in

00:18.590 --> 00:20.646
your head or for you , you feel like

00:20.646 --> 00:22.701
it's so hard , you don't wanna do it

00:22.701 --> 00:24.868
because you feel like you're not gonna

00:24.868 --> 00:27.090
make it , but you hit that end mark and

00:27.090 --> 00:29.146
you feel that freedom , you get that

00:29.146 --> 00:31.312
which you are . That's what this means

00:31.312 --> 00:33.423
to me . The fact that we are all here

00:33.423 --> 00:35.590
celebrating together as unity as group

00:35.590 --> 00:37.535
that shows we've come a long way .

00:37.535 --> 00:39.646
Although it is significant , a lot of

00:39.646 --> 00:41.535
struggling from before . Unity is

00:41.535 --> 00:43.590
really also about joy and being just

00:43.590 --> 00:45.880
free . It's unity . It's not just even

00:45.889 --> 00:48.167
for black people at the end of the day ,

00:48.167 --> 00:50.278
for everybody who needs freedom . And

00:50.278 --> 00:52.222
for uh it's a great organization ,

00:52.222 --> 00:54.278
people think it's mostly for African

00:54.278 --> 00:56.278
American , but we accept anybody as

00:56.278 --> 00:58.222
long as you just want to learn our

00:58.222 --> 00:59.459
culture and you know , just belong
