Today we showed up in the spirit of Juneteenth. ✊🏾
Our Cincinnati Juneteenth Parade Committee joined forces with students from Ohio Media School at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center to celebrate freedom, unity, and the power of storytelling.
📸 From powerful exhibits to real-time media coverage, it was a beautiful moment of honoring the past while empowering the next generation to document our legacy.
We’re proud to be part of this ongoing movement — and today reminded us that freedom is not just a moment, it’s a mission.

Happy Juneteenth! ❤️💚🖤
Today, we celebrate freedom, resilience, and the rich legacy of our community. These photos are just a few of the many highlights from our year — including our amazing youth drill team proudly wearing their Juneteenth Parade shirts.

✨ This is why we celebrate. This is why we march. This is how we honor those who came before us.

We’re already planning for something BIG — join us for the 5th Annual Cincinnati Juneteenth Parade in 2026, marking five years of our parade and five years of Juneteenth as a national holiday!

TODAY join Juneteenth Cincinnati in recognizing the significant role of water in the 400-year history of African enslavement and the quest for freedom with a symbolic dance to acknowledge the role water has played in “enslavement” and “freedom” in the America’s. We will all wear white with an accent of color if we choose (sash, a scarf, jewelry, etc.). In Cincinnati we will dance along the river (or across the Purple Bridge) For more information visit https://juneteenthcincinnati.org/wade-in-the-water/
