Have you forgotten why you were called to teach?

The long days, heavy workload, and constant pressure can make teaching feel like nothing more than surviving another week. When that happens, it's easy to lose sight of the purpose behind the profession.

But every student who walks into your classroom carries a story, and your presence may be the answer to a prayer you'll never hear. Your classroom is more than a workplace. It's a place where God can work through you, one life at a time.

Keep going teacher!

As we head into a new school year (as parents or teachers) let’s choose kindness, patience and grace. We never know what someone else is carrying 💛

Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the day that United States troops proclaimed the freedom of enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, in 1865—two-and-a-half years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.

Prior to June 19, many enslavers were aware of the Emancipation Proclamation. But it wasn’t until General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston to read Order No. 3 that the Union Army announced it would enforce the proclamation. With that act, freedom for more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in the state was affirmed.

This booklet, in the collections of our Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture, was produced in December 1862 for Union soldiers to read and distribute.

We’re celebrating with public programs across the Smithsonian with our Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture, Smithsonian's Anacostia Community Museum, and Smithsonian Folklife. ➡️ si.edu/events/juneteenth
