On Monday, Colgate will be closed in observance of the Juneteenth holiday. On Jan. 1, 1863, President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, outlawing the enslavement of human beings descended from Africa. It took more than two years for news to reach the last of those enslaved in Texas on June 19, 1865. As we approach this holiday, I ask that you take the time to reflect on our nation’s history — and its promise.June 17, 2022
