Understanding the Significance and Relevance of Juneteenth in the United States
Mayer Brown has curated the following resources to begin or continue your education about Juneteenth and the role of race in American history and culture. We encourage you to explore these materials, which include content appropriate for various age groups. Since 2020, Mayer Brown’s US offices have observed Juneteenth as a paid holiday so that our colleagues can devote time to learning, reflection and related community events.
