Today, we are taking a step forward in improving how we recognize and celebrate heritage days and holidays. This Saturday, June 19th, is Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day. This day is significant in Black history because it recognizes the emancipation of the last remaining enslaved African Americans in the Confederacy.

In recognition of this day, we encourage you to take the day to explore and celebrate Black history and heritage. This means that for our corporate employees all non-business critical meetings should be canceled or moved to another day.

Mark your calendars for a Juneteenth conversation on June 18, 11-12pm PT. Join the Black Employee Network employee resource group at a motivating conversation with Angel Gregorio (The Spice Suite), Jodi-Ann Burey, and Hilal Ibrahim (Henna & Hijab) about their respective professional journeys and their perseverance and determination.
