[Prevscilist] Junteenth

[Leslie Leve]

CPSY and PREV communities:

In observation of Juneteenth, today is a day to reflect on the history of racism in our country, the enactment of the emancipation proclamation, and the work still needed to promote racial justice. Here<https://inclusion.uoregon.edu/freedom-day-reflecting-how-second-amendment-became-race-war-proxy> is an essay from UO’s Division of Equity and Inclusion that contains an essay on this topic and its application to our communities and conversations today.

The University of Oregon is located on Kalapuya Ilihi, the traditional indigenous homeland of the Kalapuya people. Today, descendants are citizens of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon and the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians of Oregon, and they continue to make important contributions in their communities, at UO, and across the land we now refer to as Oregon.
