I am looking for advice on how white people should recognize/celebrate/honor Juneteenth. I think I read something about that but I can't remember where. I just skimmed through How to Fight Racism and did not find it. Can you point me to anything you have written or recommend?
Sincere question, as I'm a little puzzled. The headline says *stop* flying the Pan African flag, but later you say what I think you intended to convey: Don't forget the Juneteenth flag. I can see the importance of the Juneteenth flag and wanting to make sure it not lose its meaning or prominence on Juneteenth. I just quibble with the headline's wording (intentional to grab focus?) to fly the Pan African flag *instead of*, and not *alongside* the Juneteenth flag (as was mentioned later).
Am I missing something? Again, not a criticism, just confused.

That’s correct, Greg. It’s a headline, and for the folks who actually read the article they get the main point like you did.
Thank you for explaining the significance of the elements contained in the Juneteenth flag!
I didn’t even know there was an official Juneteenth flag until a few years ago. I find lots of other people hadn’t known either!
