On Juneteenth it is important to reflect on where we have been and what still needs to be done.
On Juneteenth, we honor the end of slavery in the U.S. while recognizing the ongoing fight for true equality. Although the Emancipation Proclamation freed enslaved people in 1863, it took over two years for that news to reach the last remaining enslaved people in Texas on June 19, 1865. While we've made progress, systemic racism persists. At Griesing Mazzeo Law, we stand against all forms of oppression and injustice. As a women-owned firm, promoting diversity, inclusion, and equal rights is central to our mission. We wish everyone a reflective Juneteenth as we continue marching towards true liberation. #juneteenth

My take on Uttrakhand UCC move - "Beyond re-criminalising and de-legitimising queer relationships, the UCC takes a concerning stride toward the establishment of an Orwellian deep state that implies a pervasive surveillance. Where a metaphorical "big brother", the State in this case, is constantly monitoring, extending its reach even into the bedrooms of ostensibly adult and free individuals. This move is seen as a direct intrusion into the private lives of citizens. While purportedly framed in the name of women's safety, the code may, reinforce traditional norms & power structures that have long subjected women to restrictions, forcing them to lead unfulfilling lives. The proposed law, instead of addressing the root cause of violence against women—the entrenched patriarchal mindset in society and institutions—poses additional hurdles and obstacles. It raises concerns about the State's intrusive role in regulating individuals' lives, especially women, minorities and queers, particularly in sensitive cases where deeply ingrained caste and religious divisions have already destabilised socio-political realities" Link- https://lnkd.in/dWHuv3XF NewsClick.in

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 became law 60 years ago today, but Black Americans still trail White Americans in economic and social equality, National Urban League says. The League’s 2024 Equality Index, which measures social and economic status of African Americans relative to Whites, is at 75.7. At full equality, the index would be 100. There is no question the Civil Rights Act has brought progress, but economic empowerment is key to parity. The National Urban League’s 2024 State of Black America is an insightful report that analyzes the Civil Rights Act’s impact on Black America. https://bit.ly/3W2QMX9 #civilrightsact #civilrights #democracy #equality
