The recognition of Juneteenth as an official holid

The recognition of Juneteenth as an official holiday is a tremendous accomplishment.

But it’s just one step in the long road to a more equitable society.

We celebrate Juneteenth, and will keep fighting the good fight.

June is also Pride Month. The Lovings weren't the only ones who had to fight for the right to love who you want. And it hasn't been that long since marriage was legally only recognized as looking a certain way.⠀
⠀
We support the rights of all to live, love and laugh. Because that's what it means to be alive.⠀

We had the privilege to hear the author, Dr. Maria

We had the privilege to hear the author, Dr. Maria Root, read the Bill of Rights for People of Mixed Heritage this Sunday as well as give us it's origin story. ⠀
⠀
While it was originally for those of us who are mixed. Dr. Root reminded us that this Bill of Rights is for anyone, and we implore to to find quiet moment to read this to yourself:⠀
⠀
I HAVE THE RIGHT...⠀
Not to justify my existence in this world.⠀
Not to keep the races separate within me.⠀
Not to justify my ethnic legitimacy.⠀
Not to be responsible for people’s discomfort with⠀
my physical or ethnic ambiguity.⠀
⠀
I HAVE THE RIGHT...⠀
To identify myself differently than strangers expect me to identify.⠀
To identify myself differently than how my parents identify me.⠀
To identify myself differently than my brothers and sisters.⠀
To identify myself differently in different situations.⠀
⠀
I HAVE THE RIGHT...⠀
To create a vocabulary to communicate about being multiracial or multiethnic.⠀
To change my identity over my lifetime--and more than once.⠀
To have loyalties and identification with more than one group of people.⠀
To freely choose whom I befriend and love.⠀

What an incredible day yesterday.⠀
⠀
50+ people gathered online to bond, celebrate, and learn about Loving Day and what that means to not only the multiracial community, but the greater world at large. We left with a sense of pride, healing, and even greater ambitions to push for a more equitable future. ⠀
⠀
We want to thank all those who spoke, who donated their time, and especially to those who attended. ⠀
⠀
And a special thank you to Dr. Maria Root with gracing us with a powerful reading of the Mixed Bill of Rights.⠀
⠀
We can’t wait to do this again. And apologies if we forgot to mention anyone. We love and appreciate all of you.⠀

Today in 1967, the US Supreme Court decided Loving v. Virginia (1967) striking down laws against interracial marriage in the US. We honor the anniversary with Loving Day. Every year on June 12th, it's a global day of visibility, education, and community.

Learn more about Loving Day, the case, Mildred and Richard, and the fight for the fundamental right to marry on our newly redesigned website, lovingday.org.

We're so grateful for this community and for your passion for Loving Day. We hope you find a safe way to honor Loving Day today. Looking forward to seeing all of your #lovingday posts. Tag us and hashtag!
