            YUMA, Ariz. – Citizens from across Yuma County gather for the NAACP Yuma County Branch 1016 Juneteenth remembrance at Carver Park on June 15, 2024. Members of the Yuma City Council and U.S. Army Col. John Nelson, Yuma Proving Ground commander, attend the event show their support for the holiday.  Attendees of the public event are treated to a variety of entertainment that includes face painting, a bicycle raffle, a cornhole tournament, field games, a cake walk, water games, music, food and merchandise vendors, and more. 

Juneteenth is a solemn occasion that marks the prohibition of the legal enslavement of Africans and their descendants by citizens within the United States on June 19, 1865, two and a half years after U.S. President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation order on September 22, 1862, with an effective date of January 1, 1863. The NAACP, established in 1909, is the oldest civil rights organization in the United States. NAACP Yuma County Branch 1016 was established in 1943 and has a mission of working to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equity of rights of all persons and to eliminate racial discrimination. -- Photograph by KWADWO © Nonprofit Media Production 2024 All rights reserved
