"To me, Juneteenth is both a celebration and a call to action."

We've asked a few of our players what Juneteenth means to them, and you'll hear from them throughout the day. We start off with our captain, Rashid Nuhu.

1,428 years ago today. St Columba died in the monastery he had built on the island of Iona on 9 June 597. It would subsequently become one of the most important in Europe. More about St Columba: www.undiscoveredscot... More about Iona Abbey today: www.undiscoveredscot...

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

One of my favorite films is Bright Star, about the poet Keats & his love, Fanny Brawne. Along with the gorgeous score by Mark Bradshaw, is Ben Whishaw divinely reading Keats' words.

So frolic, so gay, and so green, so green, so green!

Sweet Peg, thou shalt be my summer's queen!'

This is 'Teagan', and SDB from 2009. Blooming for me currently. I am in love with its fresh clean color tones. Closest to true blue in effect I have ever seen.
