Brenda Malik – VR Story

Brenda Malik recalls Juneteenth as a cherished community event, where neighborhoods would join together for a parade at the local emancipation park. The gathering was a time for reconnecting with neighbors reinforcing a strong sense of family and community. The tradition has since expanded, with Huston-Tillotson University partnering in the celebrations, bringing together different generations and continuing the vibrant spirit of the community.
