2008 Twin Cities Juneteenth Celebration on June 21st - The “Real” Celebration!
The “REAL” Juneteenth Celebration!!!
Vision
Twin Cities Juneteenth Celebration, Inc. (TCJC) embodies the spirit of freedom, renewal, rebirth, creativity, and potential. TCJC acknowledges the freedom of African slaves and embraces the perseverance of African Americans by recognizing their journey and promoting their economic and social development.
Mission
TCJC will facilitate the betterment of the African American community. TCJC serves to educate the public about the historical significance of the African American and African culture by promoting unity and peace through raising the awareness of our culture and history.
The Annual Juneteenth Celebration
A community observation in Minnesota for the past 22 years Juneteenth commemorates the historic events of June 19th 1865 when African slaves in Galveston Texas learned, 2 ½ years after the fact, that the Emancipation Proclamation had freed them. Juneteenth is observed locally and nationally as a day of reflection, empowerment and preparation for future challenges. Using historical and culturally specific information to ensure a better future for African American individuals, families, and communities is a key aim of Juneteenth programs and activities.
The festival is a rich assortment of more than 100 marketplace vendors (small businesses, corporations, non-profit and health organizations, food and beverage vendors); three music and entertainment stages; art, reading, and history villages; parades and walks; and a community breakfast. Special appearances during festival include members of the renowned “Tuskegee Airmen” in the History Pavilion, members of the Minnesota Lynx at the Reading Village and T. Mychael Rambo as the Parade Grand Marshal. Related programming includes a series of community wellness and betterment forums, a double dutch jump rope contest, and the theatrical production “Kumbayah . . . the Juneteenth Story”.
Festival is Saturday June 21, 2008. The celebration kicks off with the Community Breakfast, Walk for Black Cancer Awareness, and the Juneteenth Parade. The festival is held in Theodore Wirth Park along Glenwood Avenue between Xerxes and Theodore Wirth Parkway from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
