Today we commemorate the emancipation of African A Today we commemorate the emancipation of African American slaves across the United States. The celebration began in 1865 in Texas and is now recognized as a federal holiday. We must take this opportunity to recognize the Black activists that paved the way for other communities of color in this country. SAN stands strong in solidarity during this continuous fight against inequality and the racism that still pollutes our society today.
