Today, with Association for Multicultural Affairs in Transplantation and the rest of the transplantation community, we recognize Juneteenth.
Also known as "Freedom Day", Juneteenth celebrates the emancipation of those who had been enslaved in the United States.
While we celebrate freedom for Black people in our nation, it is also important that we reflect on the uncomfortable history of this country, and continue the work of making a "more perfect union" for everyone.
