One of the best things about this country is that you’re free to celebrate what matters to you and you’re not obligated to celebrate what doesn’t.
So 15 days after Juneteenth, I’m still celebrating my people. Black history, Black culture, Black excellence, and Black joy don’t have an expiration date.
I love waking up Black, and I’m proud to be Black. Every single day. ✊🏾🖤 #JuneTeenth
Mitchell Robinson on Facebook: “The last two weeks have been the highlight of my life, and I am finding it difficult to articulate my appreciation for this extraordinary moment. After battling my personal demons and continuing to push forward, I am grateful to everyone who has supported me on my path to becoming a world champion. The fact that I now have my own day, June 25th, is simply astonishing. I am still trying to process everything that has happened, and I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to God, my friends, and family. Your support during my lowest points, when I felt I didn't belong, has been instrumental in helping me overcome my struggles and persevere. I appreciate you all. Thank you.🤍”
