Happy Juneteenth, everyone! If you’re interested in the history behind the holiday celebrating the effective end of legalized slavery in the United States, I’ve written about it before.
This year, I’m marking the day with a biracial poem.
Half of me is glad
to be free. Half is glad I’m
not holding the chain.
Here’s to freedom, for us all.
