Stop by the second annual Juneteenth Freedom Festival at Whitney Plantation, where HGGHH staff will showcase the Database of Enslaved Residents. This digital initiative is the culmination of years of research and gives voice to the enslaved residents of the Hermann-Grima House, noting their ages, skills, dates of sale, and other notable information.

The Freedom Festival will take place at Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana. This event celebrates African Americans' rich heritage and resilience, marking a significant day in American history when news of emancipation reached the last enslaved individuals in Texas, symbolizing freedom and justice for all. Admission is free!
