Sacramento Juneteenth Festival 2021 was a historic event.
Two days after being recognized as a national holiday, Sacra-
mento’s 18th annual Juneteenth Festival took place in William
Land Park. Sacramento Juneteenth, Inc was presented with a
resolution recognizing June 19th as National Freedom Day.
The resolution was presented to Sacramento Juneteenth, Inc.
by Mayor Steinberg and councilmembers Jennings, Vang, Va-
lenzuela and Ashby. A special thank you to all the vendors,
sponsors and attendees who supported the celebration of this
momentous occasion in American History. We look forward
to addressing more of the issues related to America’s evil past.
Addressing the past will prepare us for the future. Onward
and upward toward the light. - Gary Simon

hope to bring you another story on this histor-

upward. My cousin had a brother who dove off
of this bridge as a teen in the 40s. He lost his
life. Hit something under the water. It broke
his neck and he died. That is another memory I
have of this bridge. So, perhaps a new bridge is
the answer. I have seen enough walls built in my
life. I am rather fond of bridges. Something that
brings us together to share life and experiences.
But then again, I am an artist, photographer of
sorts, and at times a dreamer. I believe we need
more of them.
I hope you have enjoyed the pictures as much
as I have taking them. I would like to thank my
wonderful editor Monica Stark and the News-
