Who Owns Juneteenth and Who Gets To Celebrate It? w/ Chris Ward Jr

What is freedom, How do we celebrate it, and Who Owns Juneteenth?

In 2021, President Joe Biden signed a bill passed by Congress to set aside Juneteenth as a federal holiday. While the Black community has celebrated this day for decades, America is being introduced to this holiday for the first time and its getting mixed reactions.

Some ignore it, some don't quite understand it, and others want to own a piece of it. In today's episode, Chris Ward Jr joins the show to share how we can leverage content and storytelling to ensure that Juneteenth continues to be owned by the Black community.
