“Juneteenth Faith and Freedom” Film Screening 

Hosted by Central Arkansas Library System

He travels  throughout Texas and discovers how the Juneteenth holiday reveals  the hope and courage that empowered the formerly enslaved and their  descendants to fight for freedom in an often-unjust society.
