JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION - Sunday June 22nd

 

JUNETEENTH PARIS 2025
Paying Hommage: Our Freedom, Our Protest, Our Power

In this crucial moment when rights and freedoms are being destroyed and insanity threatens democracy it is more important than ever to remember the spirit and reason for JUNETEENTH and it being an official US Celebration Day. Army Bases reverting back to Confederate Names; is just one of the many insults and harms to the ancestors who believed in the promise of American the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.

This JUNETEENTH Celebration we want you to remember the sacrifices made for us to become free and a better country. Remember who we are, "how we got over" and will get over to the betterement of the USA again. Also remember a large part of JUNETEENTH is wrapped in the spirit of the Expat, the traveler, the Freedom to find New horizons and safer, caring pastures. Whether Williams Wells Brown, Frédéric Douglass, or Josephine Baker the freedom to change and be a part of newness in a new place is indeed a JUNETEENTH celebration to celebrate. And this rings all too well as this year is the 100th anniversary of the arrival of Josephine Baker to Paris.
