Montpelier - Governor Jim Douglas Friday announced
that he has proclaimed this Saturday, June 20, 2009 as
Juneteenth National Freedom Day in Vermont.
"I want to thank Shirley Boyd-Hill and the Reverend
Roy V. Hill, II for their tremendous efforts to pass
Legislation declaring the third Saturday in June
annually, as Juneteenth National Freedom Day in
Vermont," said Governor Douglas.
Juneteenth is an important annual tribute to the
emancipation of African-Americans from slavery
in our country. And it serves as a reminder to us
all that we must speak out against hate, violence
and discrimination against all humans.
I hope Vermonters will join me in commemorating
Juneteenth National Freedom Day in Vermont."
Shirley Boyd-Hill and the Reverend Roy V. Hill, II,
reside in Fairfax, Vermont.
