It marks the day on June 19, 1865, when the last enslaved people in Texas were informed of their liberation, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Habitat for Humanity Portland Region is proud to sponsor this significant event for the third year in a row. We honor the history of Juneteenth and are committed to promoting racial equity, justice, and community empowerment through our work. By supporting events like the Juneteenth Oregon Festival, we celebrate the rich cultural heritage and resilient spirit of the African American community.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t miss this opportunity to join in the festivities and celebrate a crucial piece of our nation&#8217;s history.
