You’ve seen them. Waiting at a red light.
Rushing past on the highway.

Illinois.
Land of Lincoln.

It’s easy to forget what that really means.
Freedom Day was earned through great sacrifice.
It's a legacy of honor, duty, and courage.

And today, from Illinois, the fight is rising again.

We’re the Juneteenth Project.

A civic memory effort grounded in history, public ritual, and the unfinished work of democracy.

This is what we’re building—and why it matters. 🧵

Iron Brigade, 1863.

They marched east to defend the Union—earning a name for grit at Antietam and Gettysburg.

Today, Wisconsin still shows its mettle. Some call it defiance. Others call it doing what’s right.

On, Wisconsin!
