Brown, Goldstein & Levy proudly celebrates Juneteenth, the oldest known commemoration of slavery’s end in the United States. On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers, many of whom were Black, arrived in Texas to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation. That day, 250,000 enslaved Black Americans claimed their freedom, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Today, BGL honors the sacrifice and steadfastness of Black Americans who fought for the promise of freedom—including by sustaining the legacy of Juneteenth for nearly 160 years—and reaffirms its commitment to the pursuit of freedom and justice for all.
