About the Event
This year, we're honoring Juneteenth—which commemorates June 19, 1865, the date enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, were told they were free, more than two full years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed—with a special evening to celebrate the Black professional network in Minneapolis. Accenture’s African American Employee Resource Group in collaboration with the National Society of Black Engineers, the Minnesota African American Heritage Museum and Gallery and Meda, will host a unique in-person celebration that will include a facilitated panel discussion on building sustainable equity in the community, local Black Entrepreneur Business Booths, professional headshots, food, drink and music.
