Today is the national holiday of Juneteenth, and so we’ll spend the hour in conversation with Annette Gordon Reed, an author and Harvard professor from Texas, descending from slaves who were directly impacted by the actual events of Juneteenth. We’ll be talking about her book On Juneteenth, which is both an essential account and a stark reminder that the fight for equality under the law is exigent and ongoing.
