ABOUT
Indy Juneteenth is a nonprofit organization started by James and Twjonia Webb whose mission is to improve the quality and narrative of life around the black community in the Indianapolis area by creating avenues for celebration and economic growth through unique events and programs designed to celebrate and educate regarding the Juneteenth holiday and other under-served Black American holidays. We provide a platform from which local black businesses can benefit from their own community; to educational opportunities in Black History.
JUNETEENTH HISTORY
Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, TX with news that the war ended and that the enslaved were now free.

America's true Independence Day. And even though African Americans still fight for equality and justice today, we use Juneteenth as a benchmark to remind us of our ancestors and that freedom for all is a God given right to all human beings.
