Juneteenth marks the day enslaved people in Texas learned of their emancipation, the last occurrence in the United States to mark the end of slavery within the country.

Eric spoke this week with Janine Fondon, chair of undergrad communications and President/CEO of unityfirst.com about her push to make Juneteenth an official state holiday -- this is that conversation.
